She added that Edwards would respond to the stories that had been published when he was “well enough to do so”.
The British media had chosen not to identify Edwards owing to UK privacy laws that have created new legal risks for publishers and broadcasters. Even so, the presenter’s identity was known by many in the media industry, including inside the BBC, and has been circulated on social media since the weekend.
In a statement, the Met said: “In reaching this decision, [the specialist unit] have spoken to a number of parties including the BBC and the alleged complainant and the alleged complainant’s family, both via another police force. There is no further police action. As such, the Met has advised the BBC it can continue with its internal investigation.”
