Met police officer charged over misuse of credit cards

A Metropolitan police officer has been charged in connection with the alleged misuse of credit cards belonging to the force.

Detective Sergeant Richard de Cadenet, 38, is due to appear before a local magistrates court today charged with misfeasance in a public office between July 2006 and October 2007.

Two other men were also arrested last year after the alleged misuse of the force's American Express cards.

An off-duty Metropolitan officer was arrested in October at an address in Cambridgeshire and a 51-year-old former officer was arrested in December last year.

All three men were bailed pending further inquiries with Mr Richard de Cadenet being charged yesterday.
