Tariq Butt 'flouted the rules' and 'failed to inform' the force of the work offer - a misconduct hearing has now concluded
A Greater Manchester Police inspector took up a job working in security at the 2022 football World Cup in Qatar while claiming to be on a career break from the force. Police watchdog the Independent Office for Police Conduct said today Tariq Butt had 'shown a complete disregard for the rules and acted dishonestly for his own personal gain'.
Mr Butt, said the IOPC, applied for a career break from the force for childcare reasons and 'in order to go travelling' on June 9, 2020, but at that time, he already had an offer to work in Qatar. He failed to inform GMP of the offer and in September 2020, started working for the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 Safety & Security Operations Committee.
"The panel also heard that in March 2021, Insp Butt informed the Child Maintenance Service that his financial circumstances had not changed and was still entitled to a 'nil assessment'. This was despite payments received from the Qatari employment, none of which was declared to GMP or the Child Maintenance Service."
"This was compounded by the fact the former officer went on to access restricted documents and a failure to declare his true financial circumstances."
