No police officers will be disciplined over failures investigating Rochdale child sexual abuse
‘No police officers will be charged or disciplined over failures in investigating child sexual abuse in Rochdale, Greater Manchester Police has said.
The police service has apologised after admitting failings “at individual and force level” when it dealt with abuse victims in the town between 2008 and 2010.
Out of 13 officers initially flagged by the force, misconduct notices were issued to only seven.
Of those, only one officer was found to merit disciplinary action. He was allowed to retire without sanction, while the other six were given “words of advice” by senior officers.’
