Rubbing their noses in it

A policeman with a sideline as a gangster involved in prostitution and drugs was brought to justice after driving a £170,000 Ferrari to work.



Osman Iqbal, who was an officer based in Birmingham, was jailed in September for seven years for running a brothel.

Iqbal, 37, whose crimes can only now be reported in full for the first time, was in court again on Wednesday, when he admitted three misconduct offences.

Ch Insp Martin Brennan said Iqbal's "greed had been his downfall".

The crooked policeman's double life as a gangster was unveiled as a result of his decision to drive the Ferrari to Kings Heath police station.

Colleagues became suspicious and West Midlands Police's counter-corruption unit began investigating.

Officers discovered Iqbal, from Ward End, had bank accounts for two non-existent businesses that were being used to launder "hundreds of thousands of pounds" from brothels in the Covent Garden and Marylebone areas of London.
