Scotland Yard faces a major corruption scandal, with police officers under suspicion of taking bribes from security firms working for bars and strip clubs across the West End, BuzzFeed News can reveal. Sergeant Frank Partridge, dubbed “the Sheriff” of Soho, and Constable Jim Sollars, nicknamed “the Gruffalo” for accepting so many free dinners, have both been arrested for conspiracy to commit misconduct in public office. Anti-corruption detectives have also swooped on three security bosses at two firms – one of which promotes itself as official partner of the Metropolitan police in delivering London’s key anti-terrorism strategy.
