This confirmed that the MPS had received an allegation of non-recent trafficking for sexual exploitation against a US national, Jeffrey Epstein, and a British woman in 2015 relating to events outside of the UK and an allegation of trafficking to central London in March 2001. “The MPS stands by the statement by Commander Alex Murray issued at the end of 2019. In a statement, the force said: “The MPS is clear that it will investigate allegations where there is sufficient evidence of an offence having taken place, where it is the appropriate authority to do so and where those against whom the allegations are made are alive. The Metropolitan police service (MPS) said they always take allegations of sexual offences and exploitation seriously. Nazir Afzal, the former chief prosecutor for north-west England, told Channel 4 News: “From what I’ve seen, there is clearly enough evidence for the police to investigate more thoroughly than they have done up to now.” The Metropolitan police said they always consider any new information and that they will review the information put to them by the broadcaster. The news outlet said some victims have provided detailed accounts of their experiences, adding that the evidence comes from a combination of publicly available documentation, witness accounts, and interviews.Ĭhannel 4 News said the alleged offences include serious sexual assault and rape. Channel 4 News said an investigation has found more than half a dozen claims that young women and girls are alleged to have been targeted, trafficked, groomed, or abused in the UK by Epstein and Maxwell over a period spanning more than a decade. ![]()
