retep   68 #7 Posted October 7, 2011 The outcome is the main interest.    Of the five men concerned in the crime squad on the night of March 14 the appellants were dismissed and ex-Detective-inspector Rowley, Sergeant Hird, and Detective-constable Rowlands were all subsequently reprimanded by the Chief Constable on a rather limited charge. The Chief Constable had consulted the Director of Public Prosecutions. Sergeant Hird was put into uniform, which meant some pecuniary loss, and Rowley and Rowlands resigned.
