itemprop=description content=Deputy Assistant Commissioner Stuart Cundy said there are 335 cases pending and the number is a significant increase compared to this time last year.
There are 335 Metropolitan Police officers who are waiting to face gross misconduct hearings, the force has said.
The force is aiming to rebuild public trust and confidence in policing after it was shattered by a slew of scandals, including the murder of Sarah Everard by serving Metropolitan Police officer Wayne Couzens and the unmasking of former police constable David Carrick as a serial abuser and rapist.
He added: “This will require additional funding, case managers, lawyers and hearing suites to manage the significant increases in cases. Disgraced former Pc David Carrick was jailed for life with a minimum term of 32 years after carrying out a ‘catalogue of violent and brutal’ sex attacks between 2003 and 2020
Force bosses could also have the right to challenge decisions, the Home Office said, while law changes would ensure officers who fail vetting checks can be sacked.
