A Northern Ireland army veteran says a sacked chief constable who fabricated a military career wearing medals he was never awarded - including one for service during the Troubles – should feel the full weight of the law.Last week Nick Adderley, who headed up Northamptonshire police force, was dismissed for gross misconduct over a jaw-dropping web of lies that eventually caught up with him.Much has been made about the medal that gave the impression he served in the Falklands war.
Graham Eve has lost many friends and was there in the aftermath of the Narrow Water atrocity when 18 soldiers were killed in August 1979 at the hands of the IRA."It's all about my friends who I lost, good friends. We went through training together, we went through a lot together," said Graham Eve."I hold him in complete contempt. The fact that he could have the audacity to wear those medals when I've lost so many friends.
"Gave the false impression he had served in the Falklands War and Northern Ireland and that was his purpose." In a separate development, and on the back of concerns over how he got away with this so long and managed to climb to the rank of chief constable, the Northern Ireland Policing Board, which holds the PSNI to account, and also appoints senior police officers and civilian equivalents, is reviewing vetting procedures in light of the scandal.
