Thames Valley Police: Wolf-whistling sergeant sacked

Luke Ponte, for Mr Endean, said some colleagues “may have all colluded to exaggerate” claims or simply lied.

Mr Endean told the panel one colleague “led a campaign” to get him moved from Reading.

But the panel said his treatment of that colleague – including making repeated comments about the size of the officer’s penis – left his victim feeling “humiliated”.

It found Mr Endean abused his position as a sergeant and that his behaviour had often been “unfair”.

His comments about sex were “unwanted and grossly inappropriate” and created an environment that was “hostile, offensive and degrading”, especially for his female colleagues.

The wolf-whistling would have been “loud enough to be heard by members of the public”, the panel found.

Mr Endean was sacked for gross misconduct following the hearing on 28 June, with the outcome published on Thursday.
