Ms Kearsley said the thought of returning to work “was likely to have been a source of distress” to Mr Abraham.
She added she would be preparing a prevention of future deaths report to send to the National Police Chiefs’ Council about the challenges in addressing mental health in policing.
Following Ms Kearsley’s ruling, West Yorkshire Police’s Assistant Chief Constable Damien Miller said the force “fully respects these findings, and they will be reviewed in greater detail by the force to establish areas of future improvement”.
He added: “My thoughts are with both Anu’s family and his many friends and colleagues within and beyond policing.
“He was universally popular, and his loss is a continuing one felt by many.”
The Independent Office for Police Conduct said it had carried out an investigation into the events leading up to Mr Abraham’s death but said it did not find any evidence to support the claim.
In a statement they said: “The evidence did not indicate that PC Abraham was subjected to bullying while at work.
“We did identify a small number of incidents where we have advised individuals involved would benefit from reflection on how their actions may be perceived by others.
“However, these did not suggest that PC Abraham was treated less favourably than others in his team.”
