One of the country’s top cops has been suspended, pending the outcome of a criminal investigation into his conduct, his lawyer has confirmed.
Stuff reported in December that Deputy Commissioner Jevon McSkimming, who lost out on the Commissioner role to rival Richard Chambers in November, was under scrutiny over his conduct towards a former female non-sworn police employee many years his junior.
He’d been on leave for several weeks, sources said at the time.
On Tuesday, Michael Heron KC, who is acting for McSkimming, along with Linda Clark, said: “Consistent with normal police practice in this situation, Deputy Police Commissioner Jevon McSkimming was suspended prior to Christmas. He remains on full pay, pending a criminal investigation. When any police officer faces an investigation of this nature, they are typically suspended from duty.”
