| Police officers in regional Victoria have been forced to investigate colleagues over allegations of offences including assault and drink-driving in an "inherently conflicted" process that is causing bitter ructions within the force.
The professional standards command, the police department that investigates internal complaints, has referred more internal investigations back to country police stations, several officers told Fairfax Media.
"You're investigating, very seriously, members that you're going to have to be working with next week. It creates an absolute nightmare," one officer said.
Police sources said cuts to the professional standards command were responsible for officers increasingly having to investigate their own.
