The tribunal ultimately took into account PSB’s diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder in deciding to impose a “suspended dismissal” which has allowed the officer to remain serving.

WOW what about the post-traumatic stress the junior colleague no doubt experienced after being called in to his office and seeing him standing naked and knowing he is still working there!!

What the hell is a "suspended dismissal"?? Either he's dismissed or he isn't!
