FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda In his first interview since quitting one year ago as Victoria’s top cop, former Chief Commissioner Simon Overland has responded to yesterday’s long-awaited Ombudsman’s report, calling it ‘lacking in balance and context’.
Yesterday, the Ombudsman released a report clearing Mr Overland of breaching the whistle-blowers protection act.
But the Ombudsman says in ordering former Deputy Commissioner Sir Ken Jones to take ‘gardening leave’ over leaks to the media Simon Overland damaged the deputy’s reputation.
“I’m a bit over it in terms of the time that it’s taken and I’m certainly over the implications that flow from the way these investigations have been done,” says the former Police Chief.
“My side of the story remains unsaid and I think it is unfortunate that the Ombudsman has not made my side of the story public,” says Mr Overland.
“[The Ombudsman] is given very, very special powers under the whistleblowers protection act to investigate these matters,” he says.
“He does it in a way that I think is a complete denial of procedural fairness,” says Simon Overland.
He says the Ombudsman has expressed an opinion that Simon Overland had no basis for the actions he took in putting Sir Ken Jones on ‘gardening leave’.
“I provided a very detailed, some 15,000 word response to him having seen his draft report that set out very clearly my reasons that he has not made public,” says Mr Overland.
Simon Overland says the Ombudsman has ‘expressed a number of opinions that I don’t think he should have expressed and that I believe are wrong’.
Mr Overland says there was clearly a campaign to undermine him as Chief Commissioner.
Simon Overland speaks with Jon Faine on 774 ABC Melbourne Mornings.
