Quote ="WIZEB"I believe he would have lost his pension rights if he'd have been convicted of the crime with which he was charged. So legally, you're correct, he is still entitled. The greater powers would be better looking into why an officer who retired on ill health from one force, whilst under investigation, was then re-employed by another.'"
I assume that he was given a medical and proved fit to return, which has no bearing on his offence. We have to accept the the decision of the jury and the rules that apply with regards to the pension on dismissal, he did not put them in place and until they are changed we have to lump it.
