Overview
- Metropolitan Police firearms-licensing officers visited the Royal Lodge on November 19 and requested that a man in his sixties hand in his firearms and certificate.
- He voluntarily surrendered the licence during the visit, and reports say his guns were not seized and remain in his possession.
- Without the certificate, he is reported to be barred from independently using or transporting firearms and may do so only under strict supervision by a licence holder.
- The Met said last week it would not proceed with a criminal investigation into allegations by Virginia Giuffre after an eight-week review found no further evidence.
- Coverage links the November check to rules requiring owners to detail weapon storage at a new address as he prepares to move from the Royal Lodge to Marsh Farm.
