‘CHILD ABUSE’ PROBE

DETECTIVES are investigating claims that two police officers were involved in sexually exploiting a child.

The unidentified officers are alleged to have sexually abused an underage girl. Now 22, she has told of how she was groomed and sold for sex by an organised gang in Glasgow. She said she recognised one officer because when he was on duty he would sometimes be tasked with collecting her and returning her home after she was reported missing.

Police Scotland yesterday confirmed the National Sexual Crimes Unit is investigating a claim of child sexual exploitation dating to 2014.
