Justice at last


26/ 6/2003

I was very pleased to read your last months front page story abut the two police officers facing disciplinary charges after accusations that they abused their authority following clashes with Hyde's young Bangladeshi community.
The reason I feel pleased is because too often complaints about police officers go unnoticed.
Myself for example tried to pursue a complaint against a police officer in Manchester a couple of years ago after I was falsely arrested for parking on a double yellow line while waiting to pick up my disabled mum.
My claim got ignored and ignored and after over a year of hearing nothing from the police and seeing that no action was going to take place I ended up not taking it further - now I wish I did.
I wish the young lads and the old man who was bitten by the police dog good look and lets hope justice will be done and these police officers who are not worthy of protecting the community have their badges stripped off, pension stopped and let them instead pick up kebabs from the streets.

Mahmood Ali, Oldham
