🔴 Ministers have backed calls for serial rapist David Carrick to be stripped of his Metropolitan Police pension after he carried out 80 sex attacks as a serving officer
“This is one of the most egregious cases of police misconduct in the history of the Met, perhaps in the history of British policing. This disgusting individual should not benefit from his years serving in the Metropolitan Police.”“do not expect David Carrick to receive his pension”.
“There are very strong arguments for doing so as although some of this activity may have occurred outside of David Carrick’s exact role, it was linked to it,” Mr Jenrick told ITV’sMr Khan has said efforts will be made to strip Carrick of his police pension because his crimes were committed in connection with his job.
However, it is unclear whether the Mayor of London has the powers to strip Carrick of the entirety of his pension or whether the former officer could still keep at least 35 per cent.
Officers can only be stripped of their police pension when they have a conviction “committed in connection with their service as a member of a police force” and the offence has been certified by the Home Secretary as “liable to lead to a serious loss of confidence in the public service” or “gravely injurious to the interests of the state”, Home Office guidance states.
