The Chief Constable of Lancashire Police, Chris Rowley, has declared his retirement, marking the end of his 31-year career. His decision comes amidst criticism directed at the police force for its handling of the investigation into the disappearance of Nicola Bulley.

Nicola Bulley, a 45-year-old mother, tragically drowned in the River Wyre while walking her dog in St. Michael’s on Wyre on January 27, with her body discovered three weeks later on February 19, following an extensive search operation. Her death was ruled as accidental by Dr. James Adeley, senior coroner for Lancashire, who found no indication of any intention to take her own life.
