Former Regina police chief says firing was ‘unjustified and wholly disproportionate’

Americas 1 source 1 country 🔦 Under-reported 25m ago

Former Regina police chief Farooq Sheikh has disputed his firing, stating through his lawyer that the dismissal was "unjustified and wholly disproportionate." Sheikh's statement challenges the process that resulted in his termination from the Regina Police Service.

According to Sheikh's legal representation, the dismissal process lacked fairness and due process. The former chief's objections focus on the procedural aspects of how his termination was handled rather than accepting the decision as final.

The dispute marks a significant development in what appears to be a contentious separation from the police service. Sheikh's formal challenge through legal counsel suggests the matter may face further scrutiny or potential dispute resolution.
