Are Muslim policemen more likely to be corrupt?

'A secret high-level Metropolitan police report has concluded that Muslim officers are more likely to become corrupt than white officers because of their cultural and family backgrounds..

'The main conclusions of the study, commissioned by the Directorate of Professional Standards and written by an Asian detective chief inspector, stated: "Asian officers and in particular Pakistani Muslim officers are under greater pressure from the family, the extended family ... and their community against that of their white colleagues to engage in activity that might lead to misconduct or criminality."'

Even you asking this question is a trollable offence(new OED word)so I can only say half of what I want to say,and that is yes I consider the Muslim's a real handicap to any police force especially those of Pakistani origin.
At one time several years ago the Met had strong suspicions several Muslim coppers were feeding highly sensitive info to the terrorist wings in other counties.Bad news!

Well its virtually a Muslim country anyway. New labour has placed Islam into a position where are already the elite, and ultimately powerfull minority that have the last say in every thing that goes on in Britain....Including our laws. Including the British citizens right to walk in freedom and safety in their own country. Islam has been allowed to worm its way into main government and local councils all over the country. Islam is out smarting the British people to the point where they KNOW that this country is theirs. The British people have stupidly placed themselves in the position where they have no where to go accept total submission. cleverly out played on the racist card


Hellothere
Muslims are the community most likely to 'look after their own'

But besides that, no.

So it looks like they're not such angels as they'd have us believe ! ! !

There does seem to be a correlation.

Edit - If you look at the world corruption index there is a correlation between which countries are corrupt & the 'culture'.

Oh look I'm right!

"that they are under greater pressure to engage in corruption."

Why am I not surprised at this report?. They play the race card all the time. The double standards in this country beggar belief.


Worzel
the police force are not going to file a report like this if it was not true. through cases of police corruption that they know about, then obviously it does show that pakistani muslims in particular are more likely to be corrupt.
its not racism if its statistically true, and why should they turn a blind eye to it either?


Oh, golly!

They've hit the head on the nail, or smefink like that. Their concept of a 'crime' is rather more loosely defined than in the west. One also sees that in muslim MPs.


Mr Abba
That's untrue doesn't make a difference if they muslim or not.


wolfie
No, probably not.

The Met. is the most police force in the UK and it's dominated by white males.


Back to the drawing board
If you read further down the article you will see that some of the critics said

'the report gives insufficient weight to the motivation of those who made the complaints or issues of institutional racism.'

I think this is rather telling, the study was simply prompted by there being ten times more investigations into allegations of misconduct or corruption against Muslim police officers.

So it's OK to have Muslim police,but not ones who belong to a legitimate political party?
Hypocrisy,I'd call it.

I am not or ever will be a BNP member.

I thought you were making it up until i read the article. Unbelievably offensive and racist. I would say the Asian inspector who wrote the report is an Uncle Tom.

This report, which is 2 years old, does NOT state that muslim policemen are inherently corrupt, but that they are under greater pressure to engage in corruption.

Croxx- heyyyy, let's forget the hundreds of years of british colonialism. britain has a strong moral fibre doesn't it? No one's perfect. It's obvious in poorer countries, you have more corruption. That doesnt mean the richer countries are innocent angels either.
