A ruling that the Metropolitan Police unlawfully tapped the phone of one of their own senior officers is "of great concern", the force's police authority said.

Ste. Anne's top cop cleared of
Ste. Anne's police chief has been cleared of allegations of misconduct, ending one chapter in a dispute between the town and one of its former constables.
A Crown attorney outside of Manitoba Justice reviewed the claims following an RCMP investigation and found there was no wrongdoing or need for criminal charges against Chief Marc Saindon, said Dale Ridley, a former Winnipeg cop who is one of three members of Ste. Anne's police commission.
Brian Brunelle, a former constable who was fired in April 2006, accused Saindon of misconduct that allegedly happened several years ago.
Town council found no wrongdoing when it investigated the claims last year, but Brunelle argued the town's mayor and councillors did not do a proper investigation, Ridley said.
That led to the involvement of RCMP and independent counsel.
Ste. Anne's council and Brunelle have been at odds for months. In March, Brunelle filed a statement of claim against three members of council and a member of the police force.
The document alleges his firing was unjust and that he was defamed in a letter published in a weekly newspaper.
The allegations have not been proven in court. Brunelle is seeking damages and costs.
At a labour board hearing last year, Brunelle claimed he was dismissed due to his attempts to organize a union.
Ste. Anne is about 45 km southeast of Winnipeg.
