The news comes after allegations made in metropolitan media outlets that allege Detective Superintendent Michael Rowan gave two female employees preferential treatment. 

A spokesperson for NSW Police confirmed the complaint refused further comment.

“NSW Police can confirm the Professional Standards Command is currently examining a complaint matter,” they said. 

“While that process remains underway it is inappropriate to make any further specific comment.” 

Last weeks claims emerged that Commander Rowan had moved a long-term civilian police employee into a home traditionally reserved for front line police officers.
