v
NORTHAMPTONSHIRE POLICE
1.
I would like to accuse Northamptonshire Police for breaching my Human Rights under
Human Rights Act 1998 .
I would like to describe some of facts , wich deliberately show how badly I was treated by
Nothamptonshire Police .
2.
- On 18th February 2008 , at about 7 p.m. I and my boyfriend Marek , we were
at police station in Northampton . I was speaking with one out of members of police staff
by reception desk .
I reported him , that Marcin Grześ ( colleague from my work ) , sprayed paralising gas
into my direction , how I immediately started to chock and cough , how my eyes started to
hurt .
How dangerous it was for my health and life . It happenned during working hours ,
within operating area ,on the platform about 2 meters high and by the working machine.
The member of police staff , in spite of this , refused to help me and record my claim .
( I have got recorded all that event on tape ) .
I and Marek , we came back home .
I knew , that each phone call made to police is recorded , so I rang up police at 7.50 p.m.
This time , when I accused Marcin Grześ of spraying gas , they admit my charge and gave
me number of incident : 750 18/02/08 .
3.
Next day - 19th February 2008 , in the evening visited me at home - PC 915 O’Donnel .
She also refused to make further investigation , saying that it is not police matter .
I asked her for help , I described my awful situation at work . I said her about
discrimination , harrasment , victimization and violence .
As a comment I heard “ACH THAT MEN”
4.
- On 28th April 2008 I was calling to police again - this time I was reporting that Tom
Ragan ( another worker ) hit me with hard patato into my leg . I had got a big bruise . The
second patato ommited slightly my head . I was in hospital , I had strong headache caused
by stress . On the second day I was unable to go to work . Headache was even stronger I
was vomiting I went to hospital again .
5.
On 29th April I was visited by PC A.Titchner. He promised me help , but he did not keep
his word . Again nobody from police helped me .
- On 15th May 2008 , I was calling to police for the third time .
I asked for making case against Alibone Recycling Ltd , Moulton , Northants , company
were I was working and against Tom Ragan - one out of workers for violence at work .
This day Tom Ragan tried to hit me again. This time plastic bottle ommited my head only
for few centimeters .
6.
On 17th May 2008 , at 10 a.m. visited me at home PC M. Proctor .
Once more I described what happenned and I complained that it was not a first time , that
physical and psychical violence is commonly applyied towards my person at work .
Again I had no help from police .
I shown him letter , which I intended to send to police , to make an official claim .
PC Proctor dissuaded me from sending this letter and said that police will not help me .
In spite of his words I posted letter on 17th May 2008 .
7.
I heard from police on 22nd May 2008 . They said that they were speaking to T. Ragan
and to one out of my bosses and that there are no reasons for making investigation .
Again nobody spoke to me , I was not present when police was speaking to T.Ragan and
to my boss , so they could say whatever they wanted .
8.
- On 13th June 2008 my boss Jason Gray said that in his office is policeman and that he
wants to speak with me . I took with me my boyfriend Marek. In the office
were waiting Ian Gray ( My next boss ) , Doris Pietniczka - Panek ( HR Officer ) and
policeman Allan Titcher , that appointment was arranged with our bosses ( what
policeman admitted) , but without our knowledge . He said , that he wants to help us . We
had no chance to prepare for this meeting . We could not present our documentation ( we
could not keep anything confidential in our canteen , there was specially arranged
burglary to our cupboards in canteen , somebody was looking through my and my
boyfriend’s stuff ) , we simply could not speak in presence of our boss . Additionally
Doris was making notes , what was really very stressful . When we asked ( couple of
times ) for next , planned in advance meeting in neutral place and without our boss ,
policeman ceased meeting with comment , that he can not do anything else .
He refused to help us .
9.
I accuse police under Human Rights Act 1998 .
Under this Act police must :
- do all that can reasonably be required to protect individuals at risk of violence or harm ;
-protect vulnerable victims ;
- carry out investigation .
Police should seek to encourage the reporting of crime by vulnerable victims . Special
measures are recommended for victims of race crime .
Protection and reassurance should be provided .
Apropriate interview techniques should be used .
Apropriate interview techniques should be used .
The police should liaise to ensure that the needs of the complainant are met during the
investigation.
Under Youth Justice and Criminal Evidence Act 1999 victims is eligible for Act’s special
measures if they are :
- are likely , because of their own circumstances and the circumstances relating to their
case , to suffer fear or distress in giving evidence which is expected to affect its quality .
10.
I was asking many times Northamptonshire Police for help , offences were commited and
I reasonable have belived that crimes were taking place . Police did not help me , did not
protect me from further harassment , discrimination , violence and victimization .
Northamptonshire Police has broken every mention above Artcles .
