Asian officers need special anti-corruption training

On 10 June 2006, The Guardian reported thus:

A secret high-level Metropolitan police report has concluded that MUSLIM OFFICERS ARE MORE LIKELY TO BECOME CORRUPT THAN WHITE OFFICERS BECAUSE OF THEIR CULTURAL AND FAMILY BACKGROUNDS… The document was written as an attempt to investigate why complaints of misconduct and corruption against Asian officers are 10 TIMES HIGHER THAN AGAINST THEIR WHITE COLLEAGUES.

The main conclusions of the study, commissioned by the Directorate of Professional Standards and WRITTEN BY AN ASIAN DETECTIVE CHIEF INSPECTOR, stated: 'ASIAN OFFICERS AND IN PARTICULAR PAKISTANI MUSLIM OFFICERS ARE UNDER GREATER PRESSURE FROM THE FAMILY, THE EXTENDED FAMILY ... AND THEIR COMMUNITY AGAINST THAT OF THEIR WHITE COLLEAGUES TO ENGAGE IN ACTIVITY THAT MIGHT LEAD TO MISCONDUCT OR CRIMINALITY'.

It recommended that Asian officers needed special anti-corruption training and is now being considered by a working party of senior staff. The report argued that British Pakistanis live in a cash culture in which 'assisting your extended family is considered a duty'."

Superintendent Dal Babu, Chairman of the Association of Muslim Officers, said.

"We are gravely concerned about its contents and the message it sends to recruits and potential recruits'."

Oh, yes, your top Muslim Policeman doesn’t want a message sending to the Muslim cops of the future that they’re going to get sorted if they get caught with their fingers in the till.

George Rhoden, Chair of the Metropolitan Black Police Association added:

"We have made it clear that we disagreed totally with the conclusions... The whole thing needs to be researched in a much more comprehensive way."

Yes, the whole thing needs to be researched in a politically correct, positively discriminatory kind of way. You know, the kind of ‘comprehensive way’ where Johnny gets the blame even though Abdul did it?

The Guardian went on to say:

"THE FIRST VERSION (of the report) WAS CONSIDERED SO INFLAMMATORY WHEN IT WAS SHOWN TO REPRESENTATIVES FROM THE STAFF ASSOCIATIONS FOR BLACK, HINDU, SIKH AND MUSLIM OFFICERS, THAT IT HAD TO BE TONED DOWN!"

In PC Wonderland, everything that reflects badly on the immigrant communities must be 'toned down'. Oh, and everything that reflects well upon the indigenous must be 'toned down' as well. Mustn't forget that.

Now go here: Child Protection is very big business.
