A Metropolitan Police spokesman Thursday confirmed that Parekh left the police after she learned she faced disciplinary proceedings for unsatisfactory attendance.
Two years ago, Parekh reportedly wept at a tribunal claim of another Asian officer who also claimed he was subjected to racial abuse at the police station.
"I had experienced bullying from colleagues involving calling me names, ignoring me, pushing me to go drinking, publicly humiliating me and being completely insensitive to my religious and cultural beliefs and my obligation as a single parent," she had said.
She said her supervisor "said people from my culture do get bullied and this was not the kind of role they would stay in".
The Metropolitan Police has denied the allegations of racism and bullying.
