In the UK, Police management had a history of trumping up charges of
misconduct against officers who challenged institutional abuse or
corruption.

 In this case, it was the Police Minister who got involved. He was going to
confront the Deputy Commissioner with the charges, until the latter
resigned and saved everyone the trouble.
 So you see, politicians do have their role as part of the checks and
balances in a democracy.

During a witch hunt, you can certainly rely on politicians.
I don't know anything about this Deputy Commissioner. If the investigative process has failed, it should be reviewed and made fit for purpose. But.. the Deputy Commissioner should have a right to due process. Perhaps he will sue, and in a year or two and be given a big compensation payment from public funds. That is a common result of political interference in the UK.
