A former firearms officer with Devon and Cornwall Police is set to face trial later this year after denying harassment charges related to sending allegedly discrediting emails about a woman to her employer.
Harry Tangye, 56, of Lusty Glaze Road, Newquay, appeared at Bodmin Magistrates’ Court on Thursday, where he pleaded not guilty to a charge of non-violent harassment against Sofia Cann.
Tangye was granted bail with the condition that he “makes no contact, by any media” with Ms Cann.
Background
Tangye previously served as a firearms response officer with Devon and Cornwall Police and retired from the force in 2020.
His case has drawn attention due to his former policing role and public profile.
