Met to probe own contact with beach murder suspect
Briefly

The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) announced that an investigation into the Metropolitan Police's handling of a complaint about officer contact with Nasen Saadi is necessary. This stems from a referral received by the IOPC after the Met acknowledged a complaint from a third party regarding an allegation made in February. The Met’s Directorate of Professional Standards will conduct the investigation, ensuring the process includes potential independent oversight.
The IOPC spokesperson explained that if the complainant is dissatisfied with the outcome of the Met's investigation, they will have the right to ask for a review by the IOPC. This independent oversight serves to assure that any misconduct or potential criminal conduct by police officers is properly assessed. The reminder stresses the importance of transparency and accountability in police conduct, especially in serious cases involving allegations of criminal behavior.
