Bent Lancashire police officer jailed for 11 years (From Burnley and Pendle Citizen): "FORMER police Sergeant branded a 'criminal in uniform' by his bosses has been jailed for 11-and-a-half years.
Ex-Nelson officer Salim Razaq, 33, plotted to scupper his brother Hafiz's kidnap and assault trial by threatening witnesses, collected in drugs debts, unlawfully searched the police computer system and stashed lethal sub machine guns at his house.
Judge Henry Globe QC said his involvement with the 'Deepdale Gang' in the Preston area had lead to a 'catalogue of offences' before he was 'caught red-handed' following a search on his home by his colleagues in March this year.
He labelled Razaq's actions whilst a serving Pennine Sergeant as a 'gross breach of trust and a dereliction of duty' which had brought 'potential discredit to the police force as a whole'."
