“rude and aggressive” Met Police officer has been found guilty of a public order offence after using his warrant card to threaten a women driver in a road rage incident.

Trainee Detective Constable Ajitpal Lotay appeared at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday November 30 charged with an offence under Section 4A of the Public Order Act.

It came after he got involved in the altercation in Wandsworth in February while off duty and produced his warrant card and demanded the woman move her car.

She was so concerned at his behaviour she took a picture of him and his vehicle and reported him to the police believing he might have been using a fake ID.

Chief Superintendent Trevor Lawry, from the South East Command Unit where Lotay worked, said his “behaviour was utterly wrong”.

He said: “He identified himself as an officer and was rude and aggressive to the female driver, who was so concerned about his behaviour that she reported it thinking he may be bogus.

“The Met is driven by the values of professionalism, integrity, courage and compassion. We only want the best and will always act when our employees fall below the exemplary standards we and the public expect.”

The Met’s Directorate of Professional Standards is aware and the officer has been placed on restricted duties

Now criminal proceedings have concluded the officer will be subject to a misconduct hearing.
