Paul Pisanos among top contenders for NSW Police Commissioner role

·

NSW Police Deputy Commissioner Paul Pisanos has emerged as one of the key contenders to replace outgoing NSW Police Commissioner Karen Webb, who is set to retire in September.

Pisanos, who oversees regional operations, has played a prominent role in addressing youth crime across the state.

While not as high-profile as some rivals, including Deputy Commissioner Dave Hudson, Pisanos is considered a serious candidate alongside fellow deputies Peter Thurtell and Mal Lanyon.

All are expected to formally apply for the top job in coming months.

Pisanos’ experience in regional policing could be a key asset as the force grapples with ongoing law and order challenges in rural NSW.
