A police officer who caused a woman in an Auckland custody unit to fracture an ankle – which later required surgery – is no longer working for the police, 1news reports. Chair of the Independent Police Conduct Authority (IPCA), Judge Colin Doherty, said a team of officers failed to provide the woman with the care she needed following the injury. “We are concerned that the failures in this case could indicate a wider systemic problem with the custody unit. This was not a single error made by one person,” Judge Doherty said.
