Description

Leicestershires Police and Crime Commissioner, Rupert Matthews, faces controversy over leaked documents accusing him of asking a police officer for a Putin-style horseback photo for his election campaign. The leak occurred before a private hearing, leading to a public challenge rejection and a sub-committee review behind closed doors. Matthews and the sub-committee chairman condemned the leak, citing breaches of conduct and process integrity. The original complaint, found without evidence of a crime, was sent back to the police and crime panel. Matthews, first elected in 2021, switched parties in 2025. The sub-committees recommendations await, keeping the public engaged in this unusual saga. Checkout Solipillow.com
