A Met Police officer who used duct tape to restrain his female housemate then said 'who are you going to tell, I'm the police' has been sacked.
PC Sam Grigg, 36, tied up Natasha Rabinowitz by taping her wrists together behind her back, taping her ankles together and gagging her mouth in the kitchen of their shared home in Twickenham, south west London on December 2, last year.
He told the victim, in her 20s, he was doing it 'because it's funny,' according to the Telegraph.
Having left her restrained for a period of time, he cut her free using a knife, cutting her in the process, the Met said.
Grigg, who was attached to the South West Basic Command Unit, pleaded guilty to false imprisonment and assault occasioning actual bodily harm when he appeared via video-link at Kingston Crown
