LONDON: Detectives investigating the disappearance of Sarah Everard were searching a home and woodland in Kent following the arrest of a serving Metropolitan Police officer.
The 33-year-old marketing executive vanished while walking home from a friend’s flat in south London on Wednesday, March 3.
Late on Tuesday, the Met Police said that a serving officer from the force had been arrested as part of the investigation, but in an unusual step would not reveal what he had been detained for.
On Wednesday, police searches were being carried out in two locations in Kent – land near Ashford and at a property in Deal. A tent was erected outside a house in Freemens Way in Deal, and a car was seen being taken away from the property. The Metropolitan Police said they were searching a number of locations in Kent but would not reveal where.
Senior police say they have been left shocked and disturbed after the arrest of a serving officer in connection with the disappearance of Sarah Everard in south London last week.
