@ 2023/08/29Nothing to see here move on please
Redfaced South Yorkshire Police (SYP) have apologised after revealing more than three years' worth of officer body cam footage has been deleted from its computer systems.
SYP reported itself to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) after the footage, recorded between July 2020 and May 2023, was found to be missing. The force initially said the incident had been caused by a "significant and unexplained reduction" in stored data on its computer systems and later clarified that the data had been "deleted" and not hacked.
