Humberside Police has said it will be conducting “no further investigation” following allegations that the Conservative Party were distributing “illegal leaflets” during the Police and Crime Commissioner elections period.
It is understood North East Lincolnshire Council and East Riding Councils had both passed on a report of an offence under election law to the force on Wednesday.
It is understood the allegations centred around leaflets continuing to publicise the party’s former PCC candidate Craig Ulliott, who stepped down and had to be replaced just days prior to nominations for the poll on May 6, being confirmed.
