Special Branch ‘bid to derail 1970s probe into MP involved in child sex offences’ is one of 13 new allegations being investigated by police watchdog
‘Britain’s police watchdog is today investigating 13 new claims corrupt police repeatedly sank child abuse investigations into at least two MPs.
Special Branch officers from Scotland Yard, who dealt with matters of national security, are accused of being part of an alleged conspiracy to protect VIP paedophiles in the 1970s and 1980s.
One MP – likely to be Cyril Smith – was believed to be a child sex offender but officers who tried to arrest him were silenced using the Official Secrets Act, one former detective has said.
‘High-ranking officers’ have also been accused of closing cases ‘prematurely’ and stealing and destroying crucial evidence taken from inside police stations.
One case may have taken place less than 10 years ago and takes the number of alleged corruption cases involving the Met to 29, the Independent Police Complaints Commission said today.’
