TWO top police officers have been suspended from the same force in sexual misconduct probes — one for allegedly romping in the control room.

A superintendent overseeing 999 call responses is accused of having sex with a younger civilian worker while on duty.

He denies the allegations.

Essex Police said an officer was suspended.

And a chief superintendent responsible for tackling has been suspended over accusations of sex assaults on a junior officer.

He is believed to be contesting the claims.

Essex Police said: “We acted promptly after recent allegations came to light and we immediately referred the matter to the IOPC.”
