Bury Police Misconduct Hearing | UK News

A police misconduct hearing is unfolding at Bury station over serious allegations of racism against Black female officer PC Y, including claims that colleagues mimicked her accent and mocked her appearance—like calling her braided hair a “mop.” The case centers on PC Mohammed Abid, whose brother was involved in the viral Manchester Airport incident last year. While Abid denies the comment, others admit to playful mimicry but deny intent. The hearing explores whether these actions crossed into racial harassment, with PC Y saying they made her feel anxious and targeted due to her skin color. The fallout could reshape accountability within the force as officers defend their behavior—or admit fault—in a case that’s already ignited national debate about race and policing.
