Police investigation not public

Police in Christchurch will not be releasing the details of an investigation into an alleged assault at its privately owned bar.

An inquiry was launched more than a month ago when the un-named officer allegedly used a sleeper hold on a female colleague.

The martial arts technique can leave the recipient unconscious.

A police spokeswoman says the internal investigation will not be released publicly.
