Northern Ireland’s top police officer has resigned following a series of controversies that plagued the police force, including what he described as an “industrial scale” data breach.
largely ended the violence, many police officers continue to shield their identities because of continuing threats from dissident members of the republican and unionist communities.
Bryne came under more scrutiny last week when a High Court judge ruled that two junior officers were unlawfully disciplined for an arrest made at a Troubles commemoration event in 2021. The judge said the officers were disciplined to allay any threat that Sinn Féin could withdraw its support for policing in Northern Ireland. Sinn Fein has insisted there was no such threat.
Byrne had insisted that he would not resign and that he was considering an appeal against the court ruling.“The last few days have been very difficult for all concerned,” he said. “Regardless of the rights and wrongs, it is now time for someone new to lead this proud and resolute organization.” The Associated Press is an independent global news organization dedicated to factual reporting.
