Alleged victims of Jeffrey Epstein who have spoken to UK media are being contacted by police as chiefs beef up the national team looking at potential crimes that may have taken place on British soil.

Investigators have contacted women who have spoken to BBC Newsnight and Good Morning Britain inviting them to speak to UK law enforcement “should they feel comfortable to do so”.
