Police said there are 75 cases currently in the hands of the corruption team but out of those 75 there are 10 active cases.
He said these cases are in various stages of progress and they are all being reviewed under the Police’s new triage system.
“They have been reviewed and categorized not only by the corruption team but also by Senior Management in the RSIPF”, Varley said.

He also revealed that 15 officers are in the team that is investigating the corruption allegations.
Meanwhile the Police Media Unit yesterday said the investigations on the corruption cases are still progressing and ongoing.
