TWO Metropolitan Police officers are facing jail after admitting to taking sickening pictures of the bodies of two murdered sisters and sharing them on WhatsApp.
Pc Deniz Jaffer, 47, and Pc Jamie Lewis, 33, had been assigned to guard the scene overnight after Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman were found dead in bushes at Fryent Country Park in Wembley.
Four pictures of the two women’s bodies were taken by Jaffer and a further two images were shot by Lewis. The pictures were then shared on WhatsApp, including to members of the public, with Lewis’ face superimposed on to one of the images. Jaffer and Lewis were charged after an Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) investigation and pleaded guilty today to committing misconduct in a public office.
Judge Mark Lucraft QC, the Recorder of London, told both officers to expect jail terms “of some length” when they return to the Old Bailey for sentencing in December.

Has this legend of the London restaurant scene lost its cool?
Once upon a time —not so long ago, less than a decade — being a D&D restaurant meant something. Back then, Le Pont de la Tour and Coq d’ Argent were governed by swathes of the most moneyed City regulars; Sartoria offered a hangout on Savile Row as stylish as any of its neighbouring tailors; and Quaglino’s, until recently, was the place mere mortals were most likely to bump into Prince Harry or Mick Jagger.
