Pc Alan Graham

A POLICE officer has been found guilty of drink driving while behind the wheel of a police van.

Pc Alan Graham, described as a highly regarded officer, showed no emotion when he was found guilty at Stockport magistrates court.

He was banned from driving for 12 months, fined £365 and ordered to pay £353 costs.

He agreed to go on a drink driving rehabilitation course, which if completed will reduce the ban by three months.

Defending Ish Sheikh said Graham will now face a Greater Manchester Police disciplinary hearing following the conviction.

Good. I'm glad he's been fined and banned. If it was me driving in my car, and I'd have been wearing a 'hoody' I'm sure the penalty would have been much worse, and if it was he who was to do the arresting, I'm sure he would enjoy it.

How about making him resit his driving test? surely the law should be a example to us all,not on the same level as a common drink driver.He should be given a harder sentence because hes there to enforce the law on others.
