Special Branch ‘halted MP child sex inquiry’
Another dozen probes into VIP paedophile corruption laid out by IPCC
CLAIMS that Special Branch took over an investigation into child sex offences committed by an MP only to take it no further will be probed by the Met and police watchdog IPCC.
The allegation is one of a dozen new cases of alleged historical corruption relating to paedophilia in the 1970s to 2000s in the Met Police.
All involve claims that evidence was suppressed, investigations halted and offences covered up because of the involvement of MPs, government officials, police officers or other VIPs.
