A DISGRACED police officer who has served time for lying to swerve a traffic offence has failed in a shameless bid to keep his job.
Raja Yousaf, 28, claimed the traffic cop who stopped him suggested he was a terrorist 'based on the fact I'm a Muslim' But Chief Constable Stephen Watson dismissed his claim and sacked Yousaf, a PC who had been accepted onto GMP's firearms unit.
In August, Yousaf was jailed for four months after he admitted perverting the course of justice. The lying cop had claimed the registration had been stolen after his BMW had been discovered driving at speed through Oldham at around midnight on July 30, 2021.
But traffic police are said to have recognised PC Yousaf who drove out of sight despite pursuing cops using their emergency 'blues and twos' following the incident on Greenacres Road.
