Following the announcement that WhatsApp messages had been deleted, senior figures including deputy leader Angela Rayner and shadow minister Chris Bryant fired back at politicians, including former SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon. However, Covid Inquiry has found that senior members of the Welsh Labour government in Cardiff also failed to keep records from the pandemic period. Former health minister and candidate to become First Minister next month, Vaughan Gething, used a function that enabled WhatsApp messages to be deleted after a set period of time.

James Pratt and John Smith were taken to Newgate Prison in Victorian Britain for what was then deemed the heinous offence of having gay sex. The Labour MP Chris Bryant covered their trial in the first extract from his haunting new book about their case. He recalls the terrifying aftermath.

Commander Jon Savell said in a briefing at Scotland Yard, "Our main working hypothesis is that Abdul Ezedi has now gone into the sea." The last reported sighting was just before 11.30 p.m. on January 31, just a few hours after the assault, when he crossed under Chelsea Bridge and into Battersea Park in central London and then turned back over the same bridge minutes later, according to police. Commander Savell said, 'It's highly likely that if he has gone into the sea, he won't appear for about a month, and that's not out of chance that he will never appear.'

Abdul Ezedi, a chemical attack suspect, may have jumped off Chelsea Bridge and drowned in the Thames rather than face turning himself in, according to police. Since he didused a mother and her two children in chemical in a horrific attack, Metropolitan Police officers have been searching the 35-year-old Afghan asylum seeker since Wednesday, January 31. Investigators now suspect Ezedi died in the river shortly after the incident, according to the report.

On a warm Saturday morning in August 1835, James Pratt said good bye to his wife and daughter at his home in South-East London and set out for the city centre. He was - oddly for him - out of work and looking for a new challenge. Almost definitely he walked the whole way from Deptford rather than spending tuppence on the bus fare. James, 32, would be caught up in a horrific nightmare just a few hours later. He will never again see his house or hug his 10-year-old daughter, and his entire life will be in jeopardy.

Detectives from Scotland Yard probing for the fugitive have been following his movements and reported that he was last seen near the Thames at 9.50 p.m. on Wednesday. According to the Met Police, officers are not looking into the canal, and the motives for the assault are still unclear, and no one knows what caused the shooting. Ezedi is not the father of the teenage girls. Since being late on Wednesday, he has been using a bank card to travel around London's Tube network. Investigators are trawling through hundreds of hours of CCTV to find his whereabouts. A 22-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of assisting Ezedi. He has since been released on bail. The mother, 31, is suspected of losing sight in her right eye in the 'targeted' attack in which her children, aged eight and three, were doused with a toxic alkaline gel at around 7.30 p.m. on Wednesday.

As the manhunt heats up, Peter Bleksley (inset) believes the 35-year-old Afghan asylum seeker (seen left, after the attack) may be relying on the same clan that smuggled him into the UK to keep him anonymous. After Ezedi reportedly hurled a corrosive alkaline drug against a 31-year-old woman and her two children in Clapham, south London, police launched a massive manhunt on Wednesday. The woman, who suffered potentially life-changing injuries, was told by him and is now in the hospital in a critical but stable state. Fortunately, the children's injuries were not serious.

On Tuesday lunchtime, Abdul Ezedi, 35, was caught on CCTV purchasing 30 eggs from a Middle Eastern food store near his Newcastle home. He is seen (left) smiling at employees behind the counter before paying in cash. According to Ezedi, who lives near the Byker Road in the UK, he came from Afghanistan on the back of a lorry in 2016. In 2018, he was found guilty of sexual assault but was given asylum after claiming to have converted to Christianity. The pizza takeaway chef was caught on CCTV on the day after being arrested in Clapham, south-west London, where he is said to have assaulted a 31-year-old woman and her daughters, eight and three. After the assault, he is seen in this picture at a Tube station.

According to a former counter-terrorism chief, a 'acid' attacker Abdul Ezedi may now be dead. Since being beaten by a horrific woman and her two children in chemical in a horrific attack, Metropolitan Police officers have been searching the 35-year-old Afghan asylum seeker since Wednesday. The woman, who suffered potentially lethal injuries, was known to Ezedi and remains in hospital in a critical but stable state. Today, the manhunt reached its fifth day by offering a £20,000 reward to anyone with information leading to his capture.

The perpetrator allegedly attempted to 'crack the child's head open', according to a heroic bystander who rushed to the assistance of a three-year-old victim of the Clapham chemical attack. Anyone who knows about the Clapham 'acid' attacker Abdul Ezedi, who doused a mother and her two children, aged 3 and 8, in a corrosive chemical will be paid over £20,000 by the Met Police. After being dragged from a vehicle by Mr Ezedi and'slammed to the ground twice, the female hero, who remained anonymous, told the BBC that she thought the child she saved was going to die in her arms'. She portrayed how she found the child barely conscious and with her head'red and swollen' before taking her into a nearby hotel whilst waiting for an ambulance. 'I thought the youngest of the two girls was going to die in my arms,' she said. Fortunately, the three-year-old woke up and started calling for her mother. "I carried her to the hospital because she was clinging to me and didn't want to go, so I escorted her to the hospital in the back of the ambulance, talking to her the entire way.'

Anyone who has information about the 'acid attacker' Abdul Ezedi, who didused a mother and two children in a corrosive chemical will be paid by the Met Police. Investigators suspect there are people who knew of his whereabouts but did not come forward, alerting anyone assisting the Afghan asylum seekers faces detention. Officers confirmed the 35-year-old, who was accused of chucking an alkaline drug over the family, was last seen leaving Tower Hill Underground station at 9.33 p.m. on Wednesday evening.

Since Afghan sex offender Abdul Ezedi (left) assaulted a woman and her two children, aged three and eight, with an alkaline chemical in Clapham, south London last week, the Church of England is being questioned about whether it is being exploited by asylum seekers. Since claiming he had converted to Christianity, the perpetrator was able to obtain asylum in the United Kingdom. However, the Church of England confirmed that it is not aware of any links to its churches. Former Home Secretaries Suella Braverman and Dame Priti Patel accused church leaders of "political activism," supporting asylum cases "without merit" and assisting 'bogus' claims by encouraging migrants to convert to Christianity. Dame Priti emphasized how the case related to that of Iraqi-born Emad Al Swealmeen, 32, who died from a blast and subsequent fire in a taxi outside Liverpool Women's Hospital in 2021. A Church spokesperson also stated that it is 'the job of the Home Office, not the church, to vet asylum seekers and determine the merits of their individual cases'.

On Saturday night, the National Crime Agency, the UK's equivalent of the FBI, was sent to assist the Met in finding the 35-year-old who is accused of throwing the corrosive alkaline substance at the family. Officers are looking at allegations that a supervised crime group might be funding the fugitive's flee from the police.

A British businessman who is afraid of being in a Dubai jail cell until the day he dies has written to King Charles, begging him to intervene. Ryan Cornelius has plead guilty ahead of the King's address at the United Nations Climate Change Conference, COP 28, which takes place in the UAE, which includes Dubai, this week. His detention has already been found to be unlawful, according to a United Nations inquiry, and he has called for his release. Mr Cornelius, who has been serving in prison for 15 years, is supported by a cross-party group of MPs, including Conservative Iain Duncan Smith and Labour's Chris Bryant, as well as justice campaigner Bill Browder. His treatment has been compared to a death sentence.

After appearing to accuse a Labour colleague of using groping claims to'sell books,' Labour MP Barry Sheerman deleted a Twitter post today. With his remarks about fellow Labour backbencher Sir Chris Bryant, the long-serving MP in Huddersfield denied that he had intended to'diminish victims' experiences.' During calls for him to abandon the Labour whip, Mr Sheerman was accused of making "reprehensible" and "revolting" remarks. During his 22-year tenure in Parliament, Sir Chris Mayne revealed that he had been groped by five MPs. Sir Chris' book titled Code of Conduct: Why We Need to Fix Parliament and How to Do it, five male MPs had "felt my bottom uninvited." Mr Sheerman had tweeted earlier this morning that "I know our colleague Chris Bryant is really keen to sell copies of his book." However, the 82-year-old posted this afternoon: 'Deleted an earlier tweet I spelled poorly, it wasn't my intention to diminish victims' experiences.'

Marcus Ball, the man behind the project, has raised more than £90,000 to make The Power Of Lies. The arch-Remainer warns potential investors that his production companies are involved, saying, "We'll be showing our film to Netflix, Submarine, and WildBear Entertainment (who have all requested to see our rough cut).' However, a source at Netflix's California headquarters told The Mail on Sunday that it is categorically false.'

I might have some insight. The anti-Boris Johnson conspiracist pleaded with me, as well as the film's producer, in May. He first pitched on Twitter that he was launching a documentary 'about lying in politics around the world and the harm it does to society.'

Campaigners have accused Unilever of devolving into a 'vortex of immorality' by continuing to function in Russia. Last year, the food and toiletries behemoth, whose brands include Dove, Ben & Jerry's, and Marmite, made around £556 million in the war-mongering world. However, Unilever's current chief executive said that the best alternative was for the company to continue to operate in a'strict manner' in Russia.

Last night, a Labour MP distanced himself from a documentary archeologist Marcus Ball (inset), who advances the belief that Boris Johnson (right) lied about nearly dying from Covid. Chris Bryant (left), a vocal critic of Mr Johnson's, will be included in the program and appears in an online trailer. Last night, he said he had no idea it would make the baseless assertion about Mr Johnson's wellbeing if he agreed to participate, but denied that he did not agree with the belief. It came a day after Gary Lineker, the BBC's highest-paid presenter who also appeared in the trailer, requested that his contribution be deleted after being approached by The Mail on Sunday.

EXCLUSIVE: In a committee room deep inside Parliament's high-security Houses, a man pretending to be a tourist attempted to enter the invitation-only discussion. Finn Lau (right of left picture and left of top right) and Christopher Mung (left of left picture and right of top right), who last week had £100,000 arrest bounties placed on their heads by Beijing-controlled Hong Kong police, who had been attending the meeting.
