Posted Fri Nov 19, 2004 8:08am AEDT

New South Wales Police Commissioner Ken Moroney has sacked an officer who confessed to being involved in corrupt activities over the past eight years.

At the Police Integrity Commission (PIC), Christopher John Laycock admitted he tipped off a target of a child pornography investigation, proposed to kidnap and extort money from criminals and took bribes.

The former detective worked at Burwood police station in Sydney's west and last month was issued with a "show cause" notice which gave him three weeks to indicate why he should keep his job.

He was sacked this week.
