Watchdog investigating allegations against Jason Hogg over ‘inadequate’ probe around sensitive police information retention
Thames Valley Police chief constable suspended over gross misconduct claims
The chief constable of Thames Valley Police has been suspended from duty amid an investigation into allegations of gross misconduct.
Police and crime commissioner for Thames Valley, Matthew Barber, said Jason Hogg’s suspension would take effect immediately.
The police watchdog, the Independent Office of Police Conduct (IOPC), is investigating the allegations.
It’s claimed Mr Hogg failed to adequately investigate allegations relating to the improper retention of sensitive police information, Mr Barber said.
He said the matters relate to “alleged breaches of the standards of professional behaviour amounting to failure in duties and responsibilities” and a “lack of honesty and integrity”.
