    Description of Not One of Us

    This is the story of how one police officer fought for two and a half years to clear his name after he was taken to trial at the Old Bailey - by his own employers. Ali Dizaei was once tipped to be the first Black chief constable. Iranian by birth, he had worked his way through school and university to qualify as a barrister and earn a PhD in his spare time. But his status as the Met's high-flier was dashed when one day in 2001, he was suspended - accused of using drugs and prostitutes, taking bribes and even of being a threat to national security. This is the sensational story, told by the only man who knows the whole truth, of the rise and fall of the out-of-control coppers who tried to destroy him and how Dizaei refused to be beaten. Acquitted twice at the Old Bailey after a GBP 7 million investigation, he's now back where he wants to be most: doing his job as a serving police officer.
