"A BBC Panorama documentary will be aired on Wednesday evening showing the incidents happening at Charing Cross Police station between August 2024 and January 2025. The Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley has been provided with the allegations by Panorama, but the full details are unknown until the programme airs tonight. The filming is believed to show a Met cop making comments in support of Tommy Robinson in the undercover BBC documentary."
"The Met Police has suspended nine officers, and the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) has launched an investigation, one cop is under criminal investigation. The undercover film alleges Met police officers using excessive force against suspects who were being held at the police station, including a young person. The film alleges that the Met officers made anti-Muslim comments as well as anti-female remarks."
"The behaviour outlined in this programme is disgraceful, totally unacceptable and contrary to the values and standards displayed by thousands of brave Met officers and staff every day. No-one will be more appalled than them. We took immediate and unprecedented action to investigate these allegations and within 24 hours of them being recorded, eight officers and one staff member had been suspended, with two more officers removed from front"
