Scotland Yard is currently under investigation by the police watchdog on its handling of an allegation of indecent exposure involving the suspect in Sarah Everard case.

The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) is seeing if officers 'responded appropriately to a report of a man exposing himself in a fast-food restaurant in south London on February 28.

Three days before 33-year-old Sarah Everard went missing.

The serving police officer remains in custody on suspicion of murder and kidnap, as well as the separate allegation of indecent exposure.

The IOPC said in a statement: "The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) has started an independent investigation into whether Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) officers responded appropriately to a report of indecent exposure.

"The IOPC's investigation follows a conduct referral from the MPS in relation to two officers, received last night, which is linked to four other referrals. They are all connected to the arrest of a serving MPS officer on suspicion of kidnap, murder and a separate allegation of indecent exposure.

"Our investigation will look at the actions of the MPS after police received a report on 28 February (2021) that a man had exposed himself at a fast food restaurant in South London."
