Montreal Police Chief Fady Dagher is expected to provide an update into new allegations of misconduct among his officers.
The force said in a news release that an officer could face criminal charges after allegedly concealing evidence related to a situation involving domestic violence in 2025.
Radio-Canada reported on Thursday that an officer responding to a call in connection with conjugal violence allegedly erased evidence provided by the victim.
The report suggested the officer knew the alleged perpetrator.
The officers were stationed in the multicultural neighbourhood of Montreal-Nord, where four different officers were suspended over allegations of racist misconduct earlier this year.
Montreal police say Dagher will also provide an update into those investigations.
Police will also update the public on the suspension of two officers from a downtown station.
One of those officers allegedly urinated on homeless people, while the second officer allegedly posed for photos mocking suspects under arrest in humiliating positions.
