A Conservative MP has not attended parliament for more than a year after being arrested for sexual offences, misconduct in public office and more.
Andrew Rosindell, 57, has been under investigation by the Metropolitan Police since January 2020 and was formally arrested in May last year.
He denies any wrongdoing and is on police bail, which has been extended five times. He has not been charged and therefore remains innocent.
After agreeing to a request to stay away from the parliamentary estate by the Tory chief whip, he has not voted or spoken in the House of Commons since May last year. However, his constituents do not know that their MP is under investigation or that he has agreed not to attend parliament while police inquiries continue.
… According to Rosindell, 25 to 30 people took part in the vote to adopt him as their candidate. An official from party HQ and a rep for the London East area supervised the event.
A party source claimed it would have been “unlawful” to inform the participants of Rosindell’s predicament. They included officers of the local association and representatives from wards within the constituency.
