In a recent hearing, Insp Charles Ehikioya, head of the Met's Black Police Association, was found to have committed gross misconduct due to inappropriate conduct in a group chat.
The panel concluded that Insp Ehikioya's actions in the WhatsApp chat, which included racist, sexist, and inappropriate messages, breached essential standards of professional behavior.
Ehikioya denied the misconduct allegations, arguing that they were fabricated or falsely attributed to him, suggesting bias against him due to his race and position.
The disciplinary panel determined that the severity of Ehikioya's misconduct could potentially justify dismissal, as it severely discredited the standards of equality and diversity.
