Ex-City of London Police officer who assaulted child found to have breached professional standards
"Former PC Callo was arrested by Essex Police for common assault on October 24 2025 after an allegation was made that he grabbed the arm of a passing 12-year-old boy and tried to give him some money."
"The force's report notes Mr Callo entered a guilty plea and so accepted responsibility, but that his actions represent a clear breach of the Standards of Professional Behaviour, namely discreditable conduct."
"Although the former officer has resigned, the Commissioner found the conduct amounts to gross misconduct and directed that their details be placed on the barred list."
"Detective Superintendent Thomas Hill stated: 'Our thoughts are with the victim and all those affected by PC Callo's actions.'"
Former Police Constable Manpreet Callo was convicted of assaulting a 12-year-old boy while off-duty and intoxicated. He was arrested for common assault after witnesses reported the incident. Following a misconduct hearing, it was determined that his actions constituted gross misconduct, leading to his name being placed on a barred list preventing future police employment. Callo accepted responsibility by pleading guilty and was fined, with additional costs and compensation ordered.
