MPs seek to challenge police immunity status
Backbench MPs are seeking to overturn a Court of Appeal ruling that grants police broad immunity from civil lawsuits for investigative failings, including misconduct such as fabricating evidence or negligence. The ruling stems from a case involving a domestic violence victim whose address was improperly disclosed by police, exposing her to danger. MPs argue the immunity prevents victims from holding police accountable for serious errors, and a parliamentary amendment is proposed to limit such protections, with an upcoming Supreme Court appeal also possible.
