The Office of the Police Complaint Commissioner has ordered a public hearing into allegations of abuse of authority, deceit and discreditable conduct by a transit police officer.
It was three years ago the OPCC ordered an investigation into allegations of professional misconduct by Constable Ken Jansen.
It was alleged that in April of 2010 while at Surrey Memorial Hospital Constable Jansen and an RCMP officer used unnecessary or excessive force on Robert Booker.
At a disciplinary hearing Jansen was given an eight day suspension without pay for abuse of authority and discreditable conduct while the deceit allegations were dismissed.
However the police complaint commissioner has now decided on a public hearing saying it may be necessary to examine and cross-examine witnesses.
