A Raleigh police officer has been fired for his role in a number of drug arrests that later had to be dismissed and required the city to settle a lawsuit with the men who were wrongfully arrested.
Detective Omar Abdullah had been on paid leave for more than a year, but officials said Monday that his 12-year tenure with the Raleigh Police Department ended last Thursday.
Abdullah hung up the phone Monday when WRAL News called seeking a comment.
Authorities said that, between December 2019 and May 2020, he used an informant named Dennis Leon Williams Jr. on controlled drug buys that led to 15 Black men being arrested and jailed on drug trafficking charges.
