British Sikh ex-police officer sentenced for slapping 12-year-old schoolboy
London, Oct 18 (PTI) A British Sikh woman police officer has been sentenced to a 12-month community order after pleading guilty to assault for slapping a 12-year-old schoolboy in the face during an altercation while she was off duty in Birmingham last year.
Sharanjit Kaur, who resigned as West Midlands Police constable (PC) last month, was charged following an investigation by the UK’s Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC).
Last week, the 41-year-old appeared before Birmingham Magistrates Court and was handed a 12-month community order for assault by beating after changing her plea to guilty.
