Notice of a hearing to be held in public
Name of the officer concerned: PC Horatiu Cojan

Police Constable Horatiu Cojan, based within the South Area Command Unit, will answer allegations that his conduct amounted to breaches of the Standards of Professional Behaviour, in respect of:
- Authority, Respect and Courtesy
- Discreditable Conduct
- Equality and Diversity
It is alleged that during August and October 2022, PC Cojan displayed a repeated pattern of inappropriate behaviour towards female officers. Whilst on and off duty, the officer is alleged to have made inappropriate comments with a sexual undertone as well as unwanted physical closeness/contact. This has caused other officers to feel uncomfortable and disrespected.
It is further alleged that this conduct amounts to gross misconduct, namely a breach of the standards of professional behaviour that, if proved, is so serious that his dismissal would be justified.
