多达50名苏格兰警官因涉嫌对女性犯罪被停职 警长乔·法瑞尔表示,随着警官重新审查,可能会有更多警官被停职。

Up to 50 Scottish police officers suspended over alleged crimes against women Chief constable Jo Farrell says more officers are likely to be suspended as officers are re-vetted.

苏格兰警察局局长表示,目前有多达50名在职警官因涉嫌对女性和女孩的暴力行为被停职。

The chief constable of Police Scotland has said up to 50 serving officers are currently suspended over allegations of violence against women and girls.

乔·法瑞尔说,在一系列前警官因性犯罪被定罪后,她预计会有更多人因其行为受到制裁。

Jo Farrell said she expected more would face sanctions over their behaviour following a spate of former officers being convicted for sexual offences.

法瑞尔表示,针对警官艾伦·格雷尔的处理情况的审查正在进行中——格雷尔在自杀前被揭露为连环强奸犯。

Farrell said a review into the handling of police officer Alan Greer – who was exposed as a serial rapist after taking his own life – was under way.

她补充说,约有8,000名警官仍需在今年早些时候法规变更后进行“重新审查”。

She added about 8,000 officers were still to be "re-vetted" for their roles after a change in regulations earlier this year.

BBC的披露调查揭露格雷尔是一名暴力强奸犯,在14年间袭击并企图谋杀女性。

A BBC disclosure investigation exposed Greer as a violent rapist who attacked and attempted to murder women over a 14-year period.

进一步的调查发现,尽管格雷尔的记录中已有两起针对女性的犯罪行为报告,他仍在2009年通过审查加入了当时的斯特拉斯克莱德警局。

Further inquiries uncovered that Greer had passed vetting checks to join what was then Strathclyde Police in 2009, despite having two reports of criminal behaviour against women on his record.

通过信息自由请求公布的苏格兰警察局数据表明,当前有63名工作人员因正在进行的刑事调查而被停职。

Data published by Police Scotland via freedom of information request showed 63 members of staff were currently suspended due to ongoing criminal investigations.

其中包括45名警员、6名警长和2名督察,具体案件性质尚不清楚。

Those include 45 constables, six sergeants and two inspectors, although the nature of each specific case is not known.

法瑞尔说,依据在大都会警察局警官韦恩·库赞谋杀萨拉·埃弗拉德案后出台的新规,已有300至400名警官完成了重新审查。

Farrell said that between 300 and 400 officers had now been revetted as part of new rules brought in following the murder of Sarah Everard by Met Police officer Wayne Couzens.

她表示,这些规则将更容易“淘汰”被发现不适合在警队服役的人。

She said the rules would make it easier to "exit people" found to be unsuitable to serve in the force.

“就在今年,审查制度才发生了变化。所以首次,如果警官未通过审查,他们就可以被警务部门淘汰,”她说。

"It's only now during this year there has been a change in the vetting regime. So for the first time, if an officer fails their vetting, they can be exited from policing," she said.

所以,这是一个非常近期的变化,从我的角度来看,也是一个值得欢迎的变化。在那之前,根本没有任何机会将相关人员从组织中清除。

"So that is a very recent change, and a welcome change from my point of view. Up until that point there were no opportunities to exit people from the organisation."

法雷尔补充道:“我的重点是找出存在不当行为或犯罪行为的地方,尤其是与针对妇女和女童的暴力行为相关的情况。如果我们的警官和员工实施了此类行为,我们就会将其识别出来,并确保这些人受到法律的全面制裁。”

Farrell added: "My focus is on identifying where there is wrongdoing, criminality, particularly in relation to violence against women and girls and if that has been committed by our officers and our staff, that we identify it and we ensure that those people feel the full force of the law."
