Secret Report Brands Muslim Police Ten Times More Corrupt
From Secret Report Brands Muslim Police Ten Times More Corrupt [ Saturday 10 June 2006 ] Some newspapers tell some of the truth some of the time. This is an example. The National Black Police Association is not amused. NB Their president, a gobby Muslim called Ali Dizaei got six years for corruption, since which time they haven't been so noisy. That is why the Main Stream Media pretend they don't exist.
Police official
claims it is not true. It may be that various fools will believe him. The
man does not deny that the report says they are bent. That would be the lie
direct. He bottles out of that one.

Police Ten Times More Corrupt
The document, which has been seen by
the Guardian, has caused outrage among ethnic minorities within the
force, who have labelled it racist and proof that there is a gulf in
understanding between the police force and the wider Muslim community.
The document was written as an attempt to investigate why complaints of
misconduct and corruption against Asian officers are 10 times higher
than against their white colleagues. The main conclusions of the study,
commissioned by the Directorate of Professional Standards and written by
an Asian detective chief inspector, stated: "Asian officers and in
particular Pakistani Muslim officers are under greater pressure from the
family, the extended family ... and their community against that of
their white colleagues to engage in activity that might lead to
misconduct or criminality." It recommended that Asian officers
needed special anti-corruption training and is now being considered by a
working party of senior staff. The report argued that British
Pakistanis live in a cash culture in which "assisting your extended
family is considered a duty" and in an environment in which large
amounts of money are loaned between relatives and friends. The leaking of the report comes at a
time when the Met needs the cooperation and trust of the Muslim
community more than ever and as the force tries to contain the fallout
from last week's anti-terrorist raid in Forest Gate in which a man was
shot. The first version was considered so inflammatory when it was shown
to representatives from the staff associations for black, Hindu, Sikh
and Muslim officers, that it had to be toned down. There are 31,000
officers in the Met - 7%, or 2,170, are black and minority ethnic; among
these an estimated 300 are Muslim. One Muslim officer with the Met said:
"It is like saying black officers are more likely to be muggers. Today
it is Muslim officers who are treated as the Uncle Toms. How can they
say to the Muslim community 'trust us', when they don't even trust their
own Muslim officers." Ahmanrahman Jafar, vice-chairman of
the legal affairs committee of the Muslim Council of Britain, said it
was shortsighted of the Met to be alienating its Muslim officers at such
a sensitive time. "We've got about 1,000 wrongful
anti-terrorist arrests since 9/11 and I believe that if Muslim officers
were involved in looking through that intelligence and understanding the
context, we would have far greater efficiency in the police force and a
far greater prosecution rate," he said. To support its conclusions, the
report gives examples of cases in which Pakistani Muslim officers have
been accused of corruption and misconduct. According to its critics, the
report gives insufficient weight to the motivation of those who made the
complaints or issues of institutional racism. Superintendent Dal Babu, chairman of
the Association of Muslim Officers, said the report had racist
undertones. "We are gravely concerned about its contents and the message
it sends to recruits and potential recruits," he said. George Rhoden, chair of the
Metropolitan Black Police Association added. "We have made it clear that
we disagreed totally with the conclusions ... the whole thing needs to
be researched in a much more comprehensive way."

A secret high-level Metropolitan
police report has concluded that Muslim officers are more likely to
become corrupt than white officers because of their cultural and family
backgrounds.
