Hundreds of officers in London are likely be fired for sexual and domestic abuse offences, Britain's most senior policeman said as he sought to regain public trust after an officer admitted to being a serial rapist
London's Metropolitan Police , which has been rocked by scandals in recent years, was plunged into further crisis after, 48, admitted carrying out 24 counts of rape over almost two decades while serving as a police officer while his colleagues missed chances to stop him.
"I've got tens of thousands of fantastic men and women, but I've got hundreds who shouldn't be here. I'm going to sort it out," Rowley told the BBC on Tuesday. In recent years, one officer was jailed for the rape and murder of a woman he abducted as she walked home and the courts then ruled heavy-handed policing at a vigil in her honour was unlawful.
