Brother of Manchester airport thug sacked from GMP for gross misconduct

It also found that a further officer, Sergeant Adrian Bick's actions amounted to misconduct, as there was no breach of the standard of equality and diversity.

The outcome is that six serving officers have been sacked without notice, while two former officers would have been dismissed had they not already left the force. Sergeant Bick was issued a written warning.

A panel heard the racial discrimination was directed towards another officer at the Bury district, who was known only as PC Y to maintain her anonymity.

The details included the officers mimicking PC Y, who is of African heritage, for her accent, and that they compared her skin colour to that of a suspect.

PC Abid also made a comment about PC Y’s hair, which GB News understands entailed likening it “to a mop”.

The now former PC, Mohammed Abid, is in fact the elder brother of Mohammed Fahir Amaaz, who was found guilty of three separate counts of assault by a jury last year.

These included two violent assaults on two GMP officers, PC Ellie Cook and PC Lydia Ward, the former of whom suffered a broken nose as a result of the incident.

Amaaz was sentenced earlier this year, handed three and a half years behind bars for his crimes.

Mohammed Abid gave evidence at Liverpool Crown Court in defence of his brother, telling the jury: “From a very young age, Fahir has been known for his respectful, gentle, and soft-spoken nature.

“He has consistently shown the utmost respect to our parents and older siblings, earning admiration and pride from all of us.

“He has always looked up to me as a role model and often comes to me for advice and guidance in various aspects of his life.”

Yet, following a hearing, Mohammed Abid has now been dismissed from GMP in disgrace for racial discrimination.

In response to this, GMP’s Deputy Chief Constable Terry Woods said: “No officer or member of staff should have to come to work and experience discriminatory behaviour from the people they serve alongside.

“Everyone has the right to feel respected, valued and part of the same team with a shared commitment to serving our communities and keeping people safe.

“I would like to acknowledge the courage of the officer who came forward and reported these concerns.

“It is important that people have the confidence to speak up, knowing they will be listened to and supported.

“Since this investigation began, our Bury district has worked closely with officers, staff and community representatives to listen to concerns, take action, and ensure we remain a police service that our diverse communities can identify with and be proud of.

“Those conversations and relationships are vital in helping us build trust and confidence.”
