Gay Colin Inglis, 48, who stepped down as chairman of Humberside Police Authority five months ago, will face 14 counts of indecent assault when he appears before Hull JPs today.
A man now in his 30s claimed he was molested by Mr Inglis when he was a social worker at a children’s home in Hull 20 years ago.
North Yorkshire police, who investigated to avoid a possible conflict of interest, also re-opened a probe from the late 1990s when a different man claimed he was abused.
Mr Inglis, also a former leader of Hull City Council, has denied any wrongdoing.
He hit the headlines last year when he ignored then Home Secretary David Blunkett and did not suspend chief constable David Westwood over the Humberside force’s dealings with Soham killer Ian Huntley.
ED: Of course the last paragraph does not mean that Mr Inglis is now being destroyed for upsetting the government anymore than Dr Kelly was destroyed for political reasons. That would only happen in a socialist paradise.
