PC Charanjit Ubhi outcome summary

Misconduct hearing outcome 

Officer concerned: PC Charanjit Ubhi

Dates of hearing: 9 to 16 October 2026

Summary

These proceedings arise from events which occurred on 3 August 2022 and concern PC Ubhi's involvement in the restraint of Person Y at Queen's Hospital, Romford.

At approximately 18:50 hours an urgent assistance request was transmitted from the hospital. PC Ubhi and PC Gondalia, who were crewed together, responded to that request and attended Queen's Hospital. Upon arrival, PC Ubhi and PC Gondalia entered a treatment room where a number of officers were already engaged in restraining Person Y. PC Ubhi became involved in that restraint shortly after entering the room.

The events which followed, and in particular the force used by PC Ubhi during his involvement in the restraint, form the subject matter of these proceedings.

The Appropriate Authority alleged that Person Y was vulnerable, that PC Ubhi failed adequately, or at all, to assess the risks presented by Person Y and that he used force, which was not necessary, reasonable or proportionate in all the circumstances.

Decision

The Panel found that the Appropriate Authority failed to prove a breach of the Standards of Professional Behaviour relating to 'Use of Force'.

The allegations of misconduct and gross misconduct were not proved and were dismissed.
