"All the fridges used for rape kits were in bad shape, packed and ruining evidence," the report said. The woman - referred to as officer A - said it was"an open secret on their team but few people wanted to speak up". The case was passed between six different investigators in the Met's misconduct system in a year, with the officer being asked to give her account of what had happened each time.

She said she reported the male officer to her sergeant but"nothing was done", according to the report. No further action was taken against the male officer, who has since retired from the Met, the report said.
