Hugh Moore (police officer)

[2][3] In July that year, Moore gave evidence in the trial of two City of London Police officers, held as part of Operation Countryman, in which he denied corruption allegations made by one of the defendants.

[5][6] John Simmonds, formerly part of the Metropolitan Police's A10 anti-corruption unit, stated that Moore was "bent and crooked" and could have been the inspiration for "H", the fictional corrupt "cop at the top" in the BBC television drama series Line of Duty.

[8] Moore was also involved with the police investigations into the collapses of the Bank of Credit and Commerce International and the Maxwell empire.

[2] On 19 November 1993, Moore attempted to arrest a man he suspected to be a bogus charity worker collecting for Great Ormond Street Hospital.

He died, aged 64, from heart failure in a private hospital in Bushey, Hertfordshire, on 4 December 1993, and was survived by his widow, Connie, and son, Roger.
