Police forces under investigation
artdoc July=1991

A recently released survey revealed that nearly half of all
police forces in England and Wales are either under
investigation or are investigating other forces.
The report says that of 30 of the 43 forces in England
and Wales surveyed, 14 had investigations underway. Among the
better known of these are the investigations into the West
Midlands serious crime squad, the Birmingham Six appeal, and
the Hillsborough disaster. West Midlands police are being
investigated over three complaints and the Metropolitan police
are being questioned about two complaints.(Times 15.12.90)
