Revocation of stand down

A senior constable from Legal Division who was stood down from official duty with the Queensland Police Service will now return to operational duties.

The officer was stood down on August 19, 2020 in relation to allegations of inappropriately accessing information, assault and failure to adequately supervise a child in the officer's care. A criminal investigation was completed, and no charges are forthcoming. The officer is likely to face disciplinary proceedings for inappropriately accessing information.

In keeping with our commitment to high standards of behaviour, transparency and accountability, we have undertaken to inform the public when an officer faces serious allegations of misconduct.
