Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what information her Department holds on the number of victims and alleged victims of John Worboys who were subsequently told that their complaint had been marked as cleared up.
The investigation of offences is an operational matter for the police. In the case of alleged offences already reported to the police which did not meet the evidential threshold for prosecution, the police may decide to resume investigations where new evidence comes to light.
