OPERATION MALAYA Task force setup by Lancashire police to frame Paul Ponting

Operation Malaya was a task force, set up by Lancashire police to frame an innocent person, Paul Ponting.

The Lancashire Police and Crime Commissioner confirmed the Taskforce was set up in June 2017 but would not confirm who authorised it.

Lancashire police have now confirmed, under duress, that the Task Force was set up with an intent to criminally charge Paul Ponting with crimes he did not commit.  Lancashire police used existing convicts to help them.  Lancashire police have named three of these convicts, George Vella, Darren Hogan and later, under oath, they named Neil Wilkes.

Ironically, at the time Lancashire police set up this task force, Darren Hogan had been arrested and charged with harassment and malicious communications against Paul Ponting.  He pleaded guilty and was convicted. 

The Subject access request that confirmed the secret Task Force is below.

Some may find it suspicious that Lancashire police would approach Darren Hogan at a time he had been charged with a criminal offence against Mr Ponting.  Darren Hogan was offered a substantial deal before his trial, dropping the ‘higher’ indictable offence of Malicious Communications if he pleaded guilty to the lower offence of harassment (summary only).

George Vella was no stranger to police. He has spent many years in prison for robbing post offices as well as having convictions for violence in the 80’s.  George Vella has himself been reported to police on no less than a dozen instances for attacking Paul Ponting online and Lancashire police failed, in fact refused to do anything to help Paul Ponting, yet drafted Mr Vella in to try to frame Mr Ponting.

It is suspicious that not only was George Vella is involved in a secret police task force, George Vella disclosed the Task Force name online indicating his knowledge of the covert operation against Mr Ponting.

This website will post all information highlighting how Lancashire police protected a Police Informant from prosecution and because Mr Ponting reported the police informant for committing offences, threatening to ‘burn his children’, Lancashire police tried to silence Mr Ponting numerous times including setting up the task force, Operation Malaya.
