ACT prosecutor complained in a letter to police chief he was under pressure from officers not to prosecute the alleged rape of Brittany Higgins
, sent on 1 November, complained to the chief police officer of ACT policing that his officers were engaged in “a very clear campaign to pressure” him not to prosecute the alleged rape of Brittany Higgins.
The president of the AFPA, Alex Caruana, said the police union supported calls for a full judicial inquiry, saying it was “an absolute necessity”. “If Mr Drumgold and the attorney general want to conduct a judicial inquiry, so be it,” Caruana said. “However, it seems as though the attorney general has a very selective memory – the ACT community has been calling for an independent review and inquiry into bail and sentencing for months.”
