The cop is further charged with controlling and coercive behaviour of a second woman between December 2015 and July 2020, and against a third between April 2021 and August 2021.
He allegedly used police restraint techniques against the women – including using handcuffs.
Tregale is also accused of holding a knife against one of the complainant's cheeks and also allegedly threatened to make claims about another to her employer so she would lose her job.
Tregale was interviewed by police in May 2020 and placed on restricted duties.
