PC Isaque Rodrigues-Leite, based in the Roads and Transport Policing Command, was found to have breached the Standards of Professional Behaviour in respect of Discreditable Conduct.
A misconduct hearing took place on Monday, 18 December and he was dismissed without notice. He was also placed on the barred list which prevents him from re-joining the police.
He was previously convicted at Croydon Crown Court on Friday, 10 November of four counts of false imprisonment, two counts of assault, one count of coercive and controlling behaviour and one count of criminal damage.
PC Rodrigues-Leite carried out the offences over a period of two years in 2019 and 2020 where he repeatedly used threats and intimidation against a woman he knew.
The woman contacted police in September 2020 and PC Rodrigues-Leite was arrested. He has been suspended from duty while the investigation took place.
Detective Superintendent Christina Jessah, from the Roads & Transport Policing Unit, said: “The nature of this officer’s offending was abhorrent. We do not want people who commit such offences working in the Met and our professional standards investigators will continue to be relentless in their pursuit of officers who let down their colleagues and Londoners.”
He will be sentenced at Croydon Crown Court on 16 January 2024.
