Sex abuse inquiry to examine ex-pm

-

The police force investigat­ing allegation­s former prime minister Sir Edward Heath was a paedophile will pass its findings to the national child sex abuse inquiry.

The Wiltshire Police probe, called Operation Conifer, was launched in 2015 after Sir Edward was named as a suspect in an investigat­ion into historical child sex abuse.

The force said it is expected to come to an end in the autumn and that the national child sex abuse inquiry has been briefed.
