Gibraltar police make changes to procedures after bullying probe

THE Royal Gibraltar Police has made radical changes to internal procedures after its bullying probe.

The force has ‘learned lessons’ after allegations of ‘institutional racism and sexism’ were lodged at a selection weekend in December.

Chief Minister Fabian Picardo ordered the internal investigation after a female candidate reported ‘inappropriate’ physical and mental treatment.

All candidates who had attended the weekend were asked to complete a telephone questionnaire, and ‘all but one other had no complains with the weekend’, according to a RGP spokesman.
