Police have reopened an investigation into a firebomb attack at Nigel Farage’s London home, following the death of Ann Widdecombe. The probe, initially launched after the incident in 2023, has been reactivated as part of a broader police review linked to Widdecombe’s passing.
Nigel Farage, the UK Independence Party leader, previously claimed that his home had been targeted with a lit incendiary device placed in the letterbox. The police inquiry into the incident, which was initially reported as a possible burglary, has now been reopened as part of the broader investigation into Widdecombe’s death.
Authorities are examining whether the two events are connected. While no official link has been confirmed, the police have stated that the reopened inquiry is part of a wider review of suspicious incidents in the area. The exact nature of the connection remains under investigation.
The firebomb attack at Farage’s home, located in south London, remains under scrutiny as part of the ongoing police review. No further details have been released regarding the current status of the inquiry. (standard.co.uk)
