Stipendiary Magistrate Charles Pitto arrested
The arrest and the alleged offence
The RGP has limited itself to confirming a 62-year-old man has been arrested and is on bail until next month.
The alleged incident is said to have taken place last Thursday, the police has not said where; the arrest was made on Tuesday morning but communicated today.
Under Gibraltar law, a person commits an offence if they (a) intentionally expose their genitals; and (b) intends that someone will see them and be caused alarm or distress.
The Chief Justice's statement
The Chief Justice, Anthony Dudley, has issued the following statement:
Mr Charles Pitto, Stipendiary Magistrate and Coroner, is the subject of a police investigation into allegations against him. In that regard it would be inappropriate to comment further while the investigation is active.
In the meantime Mr Pitto shall not be performing any of the functions of the various judicial offices which he holds and I have requested the Judicial Service Commission to engage in a disciplinary process.
The day-to-day operations of the Magistrates’ and Coroner’s Courts will remain unaffected.
Why has he been named if he hasn't been charged?
Some have asked: why has GBC named Mr Pitto if he has been arrested but not charged by police?
Usually GBC only names individuals once they have been charged by police for criminal offences, but there are occasions when the person arrested is of such a high public standing that we believe it is in the public interest for the individual to be named.
Mr Pitto was in the news in June, when he found the former police commissioner Ian McGrail not guilty of sexual assault.
As he said himself at the time, it is the Crown’s job to prove guilt beyond reasonable doubt: until such a time as they are proven guilty, individuals are presumed to be innocent.
