Teen accuses Mike Boateng of approaching her in uniform
Love Island's Mike Boateng is reportedly under investigation by police for allegedly approaching a teen in uniform.
According to then 17-year-old Aaliyah Read, he told her he'd, 'Show [her] a good time,' while in Manchester.
Her mother says, 'I was disgusted to see him on Love Island...'
Mike quit his job as an officer with the Greater Manchester Police for a place on the dating show.
Aaliyah's allegations come shortly after it was reported he's under investigation for, 'inappropriate behaviour.'
And GMP refuse to confirm or deny the allegations when asked by The Sun.
Aaliyah tells her story
The teen in question, Aaliyah sits down for a chat with The Sun this week to explain exactly what happened.
The now 18-year-old explains, '[Mike] came over to me and said, 'Come with me and I’ll show you around Manchester. I’ll show you a good time.''
Aaliyah goes on, 'He asked for my number.'
'I said my phone was broken, the SIM card wasn’t working, so he asked for my Snapchat.'
'I gave him it and he got back in the car and left.'
She says she complained to GMP over the incident which allegedly took place in July 2018.
An investigation was reportedly launched by the professional standards department that month.
Mike quit the force for a place on Love Island last month while the investigation was and is still ongoing.
Aaliyah's mother comments
Aaliyah's mother Kinda joins her for the interview and admits she's disgusted with ITV.
She tells the outlet, 'I was absolutely disgusted to see him on Love Island while under investigation.'
'I’m just absolutely disgusted that ITV have let this happen.'
Mike admitted to resigning before taking part in the show but he never mentioned any of this.
'I did resign to come on the show. But I spoke with the chief Ian Hopkins and thank God we’ve got a good relationship.'
'So he has left the door open for me to come back if I do want to come back.'
When the reports first came out, the Islander's family vehemently denied any wrongdoing on behalf of Mike.
