'TICs' Under The Spotlight
14-Mar-10
IPCC will now independently investigate South Wales Police ...

The Independent Police Complaints Commission has now decided to independently investigate the complaints made about two South Wales Police officers on behalf of Sean Martin Wall.

The IPCC initially decided to manage an investigation by the force’s professional standards department into the complaints but has now extended the investigation.

IPCC Commissioner for Wales Tom Davies said: Some very specific complaints about the conduct of two detective constables have been made and so we initially decided that we would manage an investigation.

I have now decided on terms of reference for the investigation that broaden its focus in a significant way to look at the wider question of what is known as ‘taking into consideration’ (TIC) other crimes.

It has been alleged that some of the offences that this young man has ‘confessed’ to so that they could be ‘taken into consideration’ by the court service were actually committed while he was in prison.

This does raise questions about the effectiveness of this approach to detecting crime and whether it is open to abuse by individual police officers. I therefore also want the IPCC investigation to look at force policies and management oversight.”
