Accusations of an "establishment stitch-up" have been levelled at Scotland Yard as it's revealed that a senior officer overseeing PartyGate complaints is closely related to a top Cabinet member.
Deputy Assistant Commissioner, Bas Javid, is the brother of Health Secretary Sajid Javid and is the second-highest ranking police officer in the Met Police department that decided, together with other senior officers, not to investigate the force's handling of the party allegations, reports the Mirror.
The brothers, who grew up in Bristol, were accused by a Green Party peer of creating the appearance of "stark corruption".
