Police chief expected to name assistant commissioner to replace top officer under probe

Police chief Danny Levy is set to appoint Assistant Commissioner Eli Macmel as the temporary replacement for a senior officer currently under investigation for breach of trust and abuse of authority. Macmel, who leads the National Fraud Investigation Unit, will step in while the probe continues. The officer under investigation, whose identity is protected by a gag order, was detained earlier today over allegations of interfering in police investigations to benefit an associate. The case has drawn significant attention due to the sensitive nature of the officer's role within the police force.
