A complaint was filed with the Military Police Complaints Commission in January 2007 alleging that Military Police failed to investigate possible detainee abuse in Afghanistan. Three detainees captured in the Kandahar region in April 2006 showed signs of physical injury upon transfer to an airfield, yet Military Police allegedly failed to conduct medical examinations, failed to investigate the cause of the injuries, failed to properly seize and inventory personal effects, and transferred the detainees to local police without completing standard procedures. The complaint, filed under a section of the National Defence Act, requested a public interest investigation and hearing under another section of the Act.

The Military Police Complaints Commission (MPCC) designated conduct complaint MPCC 2022-001 as a Public Interest Investigation (PII) under s. 250.38(1) of the National Defence Act. The complaint concerns allegations that the commanding officer and sergeant-major of a Military Police Unit gave preferential treatment to a Military Police Officer (MPO) by failing to lay charges and covering up incidents of the MPO's alcohol-related misconduct, including an attempted impaired driving incident and a child welfare concern. The complaint was joined to the existing PII covering MPCC files, which raised similar concerns about the same MPU leadership.

The MPCC initiated a Public Interest Investigation into the handling by a Military Police Unit of an investigation involving one of its own members who allegedly appeared intoxicated while attempting to drive with children. Complaints alleged that unit leadership covered up the misconduct, altered investigation reports without the investigator's knowledge, improperly directed subordinates not to report the incident, failed to refer the matter to the CFNIS, and failed to report to the Office of Professional Standards. A further related interference complaint was filed regarding an alleged child welfare investigation involving the same officer.

The Military Police Complaints Commission investigated an interference complaint filed by two Military Police members (a constable and a sergeant) against two superior officers in their chain of command. The complaint arose from a welfare check conducted in mid-2021 at the residence of a Military Police officer whose young children were found unsupervised. Following the welfare check, a criminal investigation was opened for alleged child abandonment and failure to provide necessaries of life. The complainants alleged that the subject officers improperly interfered with the investigation. The MPCC found all allegations of improper interference not substantiated, concluding the actions were reasonable and undertaken for legitimate purposes. The investigation did not result in charges.

As part of a public interest investigation, the authorities examined allegations that a police unit's leadership improperly directed subordinate officers to pause a child welfare investigation and failed to lay Criminal Code charges (Failure to Provide Necessaries of Life, Child Abandonment) against an officer, potentially delaying intervention by child welfare authorities. The conduct of the unit's commanding officer and a senior officer in handling a welfare check and subsequent investigation is under review.
