The Chicago police officer is accused of covering his name and star number on his uniform during a march.
Tuesday, July 16, 2024 2:36PMAn off-duty Chicago police officer who marched in uniform during a pro-Palestinian demonstration last year is facing a 10-day suspension for violating department rules, according to a police report.
According to police department's rules, an off-duty officer participating in political activity can't "wear a uniform or any part thereof that would identify the individual as a Chicago police officer" or "hold himself/herself out as a Chicago police officer."Chicago Sun-Times photographer Tyler Pasciak LaRiviere posted a photo on X of Ghanimah wearing his uniform and holding the two flags during the Oct. 18 demonstration in the Loop.
Ghanimah has remained active on social media where he has denounced Israel and its actions in Gaza, along with President Joe Biden. If he doesn't return to work, he won't be served with his recommended suspension, a police department spokesperson said.
