Five officers investigated
Five Peel Regional Police officers are the subject of an internal investigation by the force in relation to their conduct during a 2009 drug sting in Mississauga, Police Chief Mike Metcalf said today.
In September 2009, Peel police officers charged two Mississauga men with several drug-related offences in relation to a quantity of cocaine. A preliminary hearing into the matter was held before Superior Court Justice Deena Baltman in Brampton.
Last Sept. 27, Baltman delivered a ruling that "brought into question evidence given during the preliminary hearing by five members of our service," Metcalf said. The contents of the ruling were subject to a court-imposed publication ban.
Upon learning of Baltman’s comments, Metcalf immediately ordered an internal investigation by the Professional Standards Bureau.
Yesterday, one of the accused, Tan-Hung Dinh, pleaded guilty to possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking, after which the publication ban was lifted.
Charges against the second man, Phuoc Nguyen, were stayed.
“The men and women of Peel Regional Police are committed to providing professional and ethical service to citizens," Metcalf said. "It is paramount that we maintain the confidence of the community that we serve. Allegations made against members of this service are taken seriously and will be investigated thoroughly.”
The officers involved will remain on active duty pending the completion of the investigation.

Officers names and pictures.
These should be published in the Mississauga News any time an officer is charged with an indictable offense
