The Tribunal found that Mr Inyama had deliberately sought to mislead the CCO as to the serious nature of the allegations that were under investigation by describing allegations of serious sexual assault as “touching up.” In doing so, he had breached the Principles and Code as alleged.

The Tribunal considered and dismissed the submission that exceptional circumstances applied such that striking off would be disproportionate. Accordingly, the Tribunal ordered that Mr Inyama be struck off the Roll.
