South Yorkshire Police has lost nearly three years' worth of body-worn video footage from its computer systems. The force has referred itself to the Information Commissioner's Office and is working to recover the footage, which could be used as evidence in court. Approximately 69 cases have been identified as potentially affected. This incident follows other recent data-related controversies involving UK police forces, including the accidental publication of personal data by the Police Service of Northern Ireland and Norfolk and Suffolk Police. South Yorkshire Police's Assistant Chief Constable has apologized and said efforts are being made to recover the lost data.
