Nottinghamshire Police

Nottinghamshire Police is the territorial police force responsible for policing the county of Nottinghamshire in England. They are currently under intense scrutiny due to the 2023 Nottingham attacks perpetrated by Valdo Calocane. A public inquiry is underway, revealing failures in the lead-up to the attacks, including a missed arrest warrant issued 10 months prior. The force has apologized for this failure. The inquiry is also examining why Calocane wasn't drug tested after the attacks, while the victims were. Separately, Nottinghamshire Police has also faced criticism for arresting vulnerable women suspected of illegal abortions, despite growing calls for decriminalization. These issues highlight concerns about police procedures, resource allocation, and sensitivity in handling both violent crime and reproductive health matters, making the force a subject of significant public and media attention.
