The Met Police's practices for tackling corruption are 'not fit for purpose', a watchdog has found.
The report, by Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire and Rescue Services , said the Met had not learned lessons from the notorious unsolved 1987 murder of private investigator Daniel Morgan.- In the past two years, the Met has recruited people with criminal connections and more than 100 people who have committed offences
However the report found based on its inspection it would not describe the Met as institutionally corrupt.It also found no evidence of any deliberate or coordinated attempts by the Met to frustrate the work of the Daniel Morgan Independent Panel. Matt Parr from HMICFRS said that the Met had "sometimes behaved in ways that make it appear arrogant, secretive and lethargic".
The Met police said in a statement: “We are deeply concerned at the criticisms in the report on our approach to countering corruption and are urgently reviewing our systems and processes. "We are determined that this report will serve as a further opportunity for us to learn and improve." “I am professionally disappointed that some of the elements that support the service in countering corruption have not been working well enough. This is already being put right.“I have read the criticism regarding employing officers with convictions. Each and every case is considered extremely carefully. We believe, in the right circumstances, in giving people a second chance.”
