Cops, Corruption And Race Cards
Her majesty’s police force; there to protect the British public and serve HRH Queen Elizabeth II. For most of the 142,000 police officers employed in England and Wales, these responsibilities are taken seriously and performed with diligence and care, but, as in any industry, there’s always one. A jury at Southwark Crown Court recently found Metropolitan Police Commander, Ali Dizaei, guilty of misconduct in public office and an attempt to pervert the course of justice after a four-week trial. Mr Dizaei, who pleaded “not guilty”, was given a four-year prison sentence after falsely arresting, abusing and threatening an innocent man.
47-year-old, Iranian-born Ali Dizaei had been in the police force for over 25 years and as leader of the National Black Police Association had played an active part in promoting the employment and fair-treatment of ethnic minorities in the British police force. But there had been rumblings about Mr Dizaei’s conduct for a number of years, including allegations that he was involved in drug-related crime, threatening behaviour towards his ex-girlfriend and personal claims that the police force racially discriminate in the highest ranks.
In February the following charges were brought against Mr Dizaei in Southwark Crown Court:
- On the 18 July 2008, Dizaei arrested 24-year-old Waad Al-Baghdadi after an argument outside a restaurant in West London. Mr Al-Baghdadi claimed that he had designed a website for Dizaei and was owed £600 in payment for his time and labour.
- Mr Al-Baghdadi claimed that he was treated “violently”, whilst in custody. Mr Dizaei counter-claimed that he was assaulted and poked with the mouthpiece of a shisha-pipe in the stomach.
- After a period of 24 hours imprisonment, Mr Al-Baghdadi was released on bail with no further charges.
Until very recently Mr Dizaei had evaded justice, in part by alleging that investigations against him were based on his colour and therefore discriminatory. What do you do if one of your employees plays the race card?
The short answer is – you would do exactly the same as for any other employee. The discrimination legislation sets out to level an uneven playing field and ensure employees can compete on equal terms. It is not there as a shield against unacceptable (even criminal) behaviour. The correct process to follow when you have concerns is your disciplinary process and that applies to all employees, whatever colour they are.
If an employee accuses you of less favourable treatment because of his race, colour etc, ask what the basis is for the allegation and point out that you are treating him as you would treat any other employee who had engaged in such conduct or behaviour. Ask how then he has reached the conclusion that he is being treated less favourably. And wait for an answer. If challenged reasonably, such complaints usually die a death ……
Deal with all concerns promptly and efficiently. Investigate any claims thoroughly and gather as much evidence as you can before reviewing it with the employee. Throughout the proceedings, ensure that youdocument all correspondence and take minutes of all meetings; this will enable you to provide evidence (if needed) that you had genuine reasons for concern and have taken action that is consistent, fair, lawful and proportionate.
