Maybe that was the only place he could find a GP with an appointment.

Feels like more is missing from this.
Laptop stuff is clearly wrong but people shouldn’t be arrested for throwing a sicky, that’s what the disciplinary process is for.
Also going sick doesn’t prevent travel. I had a month off with a nervous breakdown and we still went on our previously planned long weekend to the lakes.

Surely this bit is the bigger issue:
>PC Khan then got a third party to access his (police) laptop at home to submit the sickness form on his behalf and send a confirmation email to his line manager, the IOPC added.

Calling in sick was the real problem but that he gave access to his laptop to another person so they could impersonate him and submit the absence/ sick leave notification. This would ensure disciplinary action in most jobs but is especially serious when someone has access to sensitive information.

Who cares? A police officer pulled a sick day. Like thousands of others the same day.

I expect no misconduct will be found as he boosts the minority numbers within the force.

“The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) said suspicions had been raised after PC Khan reported sick”
What was suspicious exactly?

Wasting time and resources arresting him at the airport. Why not just wait and interview him voluntarily upon his return?

Did his superiors chase him down with the benny hill music on?

Calling in sick, means not well to do the job. Doesn’t mean they cannot do things

Nothing wrong with this. Legally he can’t be touched. Good on him.
