Another
two former ministers have been accused of sexually abusing children in the
1980s as part of an alleged ring of Westminster paedophiles.
Their
names were given to police investigating claims politicians routinely raped
young boys and girls at a number of addresses in the capital 30 years
ago.
MP
John Mann, who handed a dossier of information to Scotland Yard, was approached
by the two new politicians' alleged victim last week.

Another
two former ministers have been named in allegations of sexual abuse of children
by Westminster VIPs in the 1980s. Above, the Dolphin Square apartment complex
where much of the abuse is alleged to have taken place
They
join 22 others named by Mr Mann to police, six of whom are still in Parliament,
the Sunday Times reports.
'Someone
has contacted me with some very precise allegations - not just the names but
the basis of the allegations - and it is going straight to the police,' Mr Mann
told the newspaper.
'I
have no idea whether it is true or not. All I know is that it is a very precise
allegation.'
The
alleged victim is the fourth person to have contacted Mr Mann in the past
week.
Last
week the Labour MP sensationally claimed that two whistle-blowers who
threatened to expose the alleged ring of high-placed paedophiles were murdered
to keep a lid on the scandal.

He
also gave police the address of a flat where, the men say, they were regularly
abused as children after being plucked from Lambeth care homes.
The
property lay in Dolphin Square, a luxurious apartment complex in Pimlico
frequented by Westminster VIPs which has been repeatedly referred to in
allegations of abuse at the hands of ministers.
Mr
Mann alerted police to allegations of child abuse at the prestigious block in
1989 when he was a Lambeth councillor, but nothing was done.
The
two whistleblowers he claims may have been killed are said to have been ready
to expose powerful figures preying on teenage boys from children’s care homes
in the south London borough.
The
information Mr Mann has given police concerns the suspicious deaths of a
Lambeth Council caretaker in 1989 and a social worker in 1993 who allegedly
threatened to expose a paedophile ring linked to a future minister in Tony Blair’s
government.
Earlier,
Metropolitan Police said it was investigating claims that a Tory MP strangled a
12-year-old boy.
A
Home Office inquiry into the alleged abuse was stunted after Fiona Woolf, a
former president of the Law Society, stepped down amid claims she may have a
conflict of interest.
Theresa
May is now said to be considering a statutory inquiry which will compel people
to give evidence.
