Philip Balmforth, a West Yorkshire policeman who is recognised as one of the UK's leading authorities on honour-violence, has been threatened with the sack for speaking to the press.
Balmforth has been suspended from his duty and faces a disciplinary hearing later this week for giving an interview to The Times about Asian children who go missing from schools in Bradford.
The move is understood to have been triggered after Bradford's local council claimed that Balmforth's outspokeness was damaging the city's reputation.
The Centre for Social Cohesion relied extensively on Balmforth's expertise for the our recent report 'Crimes of the Community' and has the highest respect for his work.
He is one of the greatest authorities on honour-violence in the UK and has saved thousands of young women from harm during his 20-year career.
The Centre for Social Cohesion will be doing everything it can to assist him and ensure that he is allowed to return to his duties at the earliest possible opportunity
