Complaint (CO/00432/15) - PC Thomas Blake

fFaudwAtch UK made this Freedom of Information request to Humberside Police This request has been closed to new correspondence. Contact us if you think it should be reopened.

The request was partially successful.

Dear Humberside Police,

This request relates to an innocent member of the public being stitched-up with the suspected motivation being that the victim had got on the wrong side of the police by highlighting matters for which the force is complicit in substantial fraud.

A complaint was made about PC Thomas Blake on 8 November 2015, as it was suspected that this officer had incited witnesses (who had lied) to commit perjury, but six months on there is no outcome.

Please disclose records held by the force relating to this matter.

Yours faithfully,

fFaudwAtch UK

It would be interesting to know just what it is with public bodies that makes it so difficult for them to take responsibility for their actions and facing the truth.

Dear Information Compliance,

Response to this request is delayed. By law, Humberside Police should have responded by 7 June 2016.

Yours sincerely,

Dear Information Compliance,

If there is no response by 30 June 2016 I will assume Humberside police has no intention of replying and prefer that I escalate the matter to the Information Commissioner.

Complaint sent to Information Commissioner's Office about Humberside Police failing to deal with my FoI request.

Information Commissioner's Office
Wycliffe House
Water Lane, Wilmslow
Cheshire SK9 5AF

2 July 2016

Dear Sir/Madam

RE: INDEPENDENT REVIEW OF FOI REQUEST TO HUMBERSIDE POLICE – (REF NONE)

I made a freedom of information request to Humberside Police (‘HP’) on 9 May 2016. Details can be found on the “what do they know” website at the following address:

https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/c...
Complaint (CO/00432/15) - PC Thomas Blake

You will see from the contents of the above that HP had not responded by the 7 June deadline and on the 8 June I notified it about the delay which was not responded to and so submitted a request for review on 17 June on the grounds that there had been no response.

I communicated on 27 June to HP that if it had not responded by 30 June I would assume it would have no intention of doing so and prefer that I escalate the matter to the Information Commissioner.

In essence, HP has not responded to any of the communications other than those which were computer generated.

Yours sincerely

It's of concern that 45 weeks have passed with no sign that the police have taken any steps in determining an outcome.

The minute you engage with the police in a complaint you make the injustice suffered 1,000 times worse. The complaint procedure is governed by statute and the police are expert in exploiting the relevant laws so they can f_ your life up for as long as you allow them.

For the avoidance of doubt, the whole process is a sham. They will use tricks of the trade like for example record your complaint wrongly so you have no appeal rights, and/or prolong the complaint over several months or even years knowing full well that when they do eventually make a decision it will be a decision not to uphold your complaint.

They will if recording the complaint correctly give you 21 days to submit an appeal which if you do they will deal with internally (i.e., another officer looking after his colleague's best interest will be allocated the job). After wasting a year or so more of your time you will get the outcome of another sham process. You will then be informed that their decision is final and can only be challenged in the High Court which because of the impracticalities and the potential to lose your home to pay for the litigation costs is the deterrent and why they can get away with conducting sham investigations.

The Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) will not intervene if you raise concerns about the force's abuse of the system, neither will the Police & Crime Commissioner who is paid and elected to represent the public, because they too are sham organisations.
