Counter-terrorist police chief says ‘new evidence’ led to his team taking over investigation into Ann Widdecombe’s death – UK politics live

The counter-terrorist police chief revealed that "new evidence" prompted a shift in the investigation into the mysterious death of former MP Ann Widdecombe, now under the scrutiny of counter-terrorism teams. This development comes amid a broader governmental crackdown on international threats, as the UK has recently proscribed the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps using new national security powers. The move underscores the government's intensified focus on state-sponsored terrorism, reflecting a significant shift in its domestic and international security strategies.
