Your comment needs to take into account circumstances. Refusal
in the example you gave is a disciplinary offence because it is
'distant'. Should the person be standing in front of you or in
easy reach and there is no good reason you can't arrest

Say IG knew that tomorrow he had to go and help inventory
a pile of seized cigarettes in some town or other, and he
didn't want to do it because he objects to cigarette taxes.
So he stays in bed and doesn't show up for work.
What offence is that?

I would have to check but the charge of misfeasance in public
office is probably in one of the Criminal Law Acts
No just the disciplinary offence of failing to report for
duty. If he was ordered to go there and either refused or
just didn't go
