Former detective constable Jeffrey Davies has today been dismissed from South Wales Police following a gross misconduct disciplinary hearing chaired by Chief Constable Peter Vaughan.
Earlier this month, Davies was convicted of sexual offences and sentenced to three years in prison.
Chief Constable Peter Vaughan said: “Jeffrey Davies was in a position of great trust but that trust was betrayed by his criminal behaviour. His actions were completely unacceptable and he has let down his colleagues and the communities he once served.
“Davies displayed a gross abuse of position and power which will not be tolerated within policing.
“The thorough and determined investigation carried out by South Wales Police and managed by the IPCC demonstrates our determination to tackle behaviour of this kind.”
