UK: Chief Constable and deputy arrested in Cleveland Police Authority probe


THE Chief Constable of Cleveland Police Sean Price and his deputy Derek Bonnard have been arrested today as part of a corruption probe into Cleveland Police Authority.

Sean Price, and deputy Derek Bonnard were questioned by detectives at a police station in North Yorkshire on suspicion of misconduct in a public office, fraud by abuse of position and corrupt practice. A woman was also arrested on suspicion of the same offences.

In May, Warwickshire Police were brought in to oversee a wide-ranging corruption investigation after allegations were made against present and former members of Cleveland Police Authority - the force’s governing body.

Neither the Warwickshire or Cleveland force, nor that in North Yorkshire, would release any more details on the arrested people or say where they are being questioned.

But the Gazette understands from sources that the three were arrested at about 6am. The Home Office is also believed to have been informed.

A statement from Warwickshire Police today said: "Police officers conducting a criminal investigation into a number of people with current or past associations with Cleveland Police Authority and the manner in which the authority may have conducted some of its business have this morning arrested three people on suspicion of misconduct in a public office, fraud by abuse of position and corrupt practice.

"Two men and a woman were arrested and have been taken to a police station in North Yorkshire where they will be interviewed later today.

"A number of premises are being searched in connection with these arrests."

An extraordinary meeting of Cleveland Police Authority was due to be held behind closed doors today and a statement was expected to be released later.

The Independent Police Complaints Commission released the following statement: "The IPCC can confirm that it has been informed of developments and would anticipate referrals from the police authority." Nobody from the Home Office was available for comment.
