A north London police officer has been arrested after strangling a woman. The Met officer reportedly carried out the assault on a woman known to him whilst off-duty.
PC Mahad Abdalla was charged on Sunday, March 24 with non-fatal strangulation and assault. He is due to appear in custody at Westminster Magistrates’ Court today (Monday, March 25).
PC Abdalla is attached to the Territorial Support Group on the north west area and has been suspended from duties due to the incident. Enquiries by the Met’s Directorate of Professional Standards are ongoing.

Following the report to police, a woman has been safeguarded. He is not the first Met officer to appear in court over the last few weeks.
Another Metropolitan Police officer lied about being surrounded by 50 people during a fight in a Clapham pub. A misconduct hearing took place and found that Alison Campbell – a former Detective Constable based on the Central North Command Unit – breached the standards of professional behaviour regarding ‘honesty and integrity’ and ‘authority, respect and diversity’.
DC Campbell became involved in an altercation with two members of the public when she was off duty on July 25, 2021. Following this she claimed to her colleagues that she had identified herself as a police officer after a victim of domestic violence had come forward to her and then been surrounded by up to 50 people acting aggressively.
She resigned from the Met on Tuesday, March 14, two days before her hearing.
