Ex Superintendent Novlett Williams (pictured) claims the 'actions' taken by the Met Police were 'disproportionate' and part of a 'campaign' to get rid of her.
DEEP DIVE:A former senior female police officer has sued the Met Police for race and sex discrimination for the way she was treated after being convicted for possession of a child abuse video.
She claims the force applied 'pressure' to the Crown Prosecution Service to bring further charges against her after accusing her of failing repeatedly to comply with her sex offender notification requirements. In March 2020, Supt Williams was dismissed from the force for gross misconduct after a special disciplinary hearing.
In light of the failure to report this, Supt Williams was offered by the Met to resolve the matter by taking a caution. In June 2023, Supt Williams was charged with failing to notify police of information required seven times between 22 November 2019 and December 11 2021.
