In this context it means Police Constable. Although the. BBC have since changed the title to be "detective" instead now.
Rightly so, as the article originally stated he was a detective and not a regular constable.
Either way, using acronyms where they aren't necessary, especially popular ones with multiple meanings, is a genuinely terrible idea.
Thanks for sharing the article nonetheless.
