A York Regional Police officer has been charged by her own force after company insurance benefits were allegedly misused.

The force’s Police Professional Standards Bureau launched an investigation back in July of an officer in response to complaints from the benefits provider.

According to the Toronto Star story, York police will not disclose any details about the allegations, and cannot provide the name of the insurance provider since the company is considered a victim.

Charged with two counts of uttering false documents, and two counts of fraud under $5,000 is Constable Salwa Husseini, age 31.

Husseini has been suspended with pay during the investigation.

She is scheduled to appear in Newmarket court on Nov. 27.
