A former chief of police, Nick Adderley, is facing charges of fraud and misconduct in public office related to alleged misrepresentations made during his application process to join the Northamptonshire Police force. The Crown Prosecution Service revealed that Adderley is accused of providing false information regarding his military background and educational accomplishments.
The decision to prosecute Adderley follows an investigation by the Independent Office for Police Conduct, an authority responsible for handling serious complaints within British law enforcement. Malcolm McHaffie, head of the Crown Prosecution Service’s Special Crime Division, stated that sufficient evidence has been gathered to support the charges of fraud and misconduct in public office against Adderley, emphasizing the importance of pursuing legal action in the public interest.
Adderley is scheduled to appear before Westminster Magistrates’ Court on November 10 to face these allegations. The collaboration between the Crown Prosecution Service and the Independent Office for Police Conduct has been instrumental in advancing the case against Adderley.
