Officer sacked after boasting of using force on young female detainee

Pc Charlie Cano was dismissed without notice after a misconduct panel found he was at the station involved in “inappropriate and discriminatory conversations” about female members of the public.

His behaviour was unearthed after the BBC Panorama documentary on the station aired in October, the Metropolitan Police said.

Footage showed Pc Cano, of Central West Command Unit, making the comments.

Further unaired content was later provided to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC), which is still probing the behaviour of multiple officers from Charing Cross.

“Eight serving officers have been dismissed for their unacceptable conduct at Charing Cross and we continue to support the ongoing IOPC investigation.

“The robust action we are taking is part of our tireless work to raise standards and improve the culture across our organisation.”
The panel found Pc Cano breached the standards of professional behaviour relating to discreditable conduct, authority, respect and courtesy, and equality and diversity.
