A constable from Operations Support Command has today been stood down from official duty with the Queensland Police Service.

The officer, a 29 year-old man, is the subject of allegations of using excessive force while effecting arrests and destroying private video and audio recordings relating to those arrests.

In keeping with our commitment to high standards of behaviour, transparency and accountability, we have an undertaking to inform the public when an officer faces disciplinary processes involving stand down or suspension.

This does not mean that the allegations against the officer have been substantiated.
