Senior policewoman suspended after the “breast spat”

A senior policewoman is under investigation amid claims she had an argument with a colleague about who had the most attractive breasts.

According to Telegraph’s story, an assistant Chief Constable Rebekah Sutcliffe has been suspended by Greater Manchester Police after the reported late-night row in a hotel bar.

The 46-year-old is said to have got into a “loud disagreement” with Superintendent Sarah Jackson about who had the “best boobs” while attending the Senior Women In Policing conference.

It is unknown which of the two women started the row, but the Mail on Sunday reported a source claiming ACC Sutcliffe had been “comparing” breasts with Supt Jackson. Greater Manchester Police Chief Constable Ian Hopkins later tweeted that he was “so proud” of the officers who organised the event.

However, he later suspended  ACC Sutcliffe over her alleged spat with Supt Jackson.

ACC Sutcliffe told the Mail on Sunday: “I’ve nothing to say. This is an incredibly stressful time.”

A Greater Manchester Police spokesman said: “A senior officer has been suspended following allegations of inappropriate behaviour. The alleged row took place last week during the three-day event designed to improve the “profile and perception” of female officers at Manchester’s Hilton hotel.

“An investigation is under way and it would be inappropriate to make further comment.”
