Separate allegations emerge as police force investigates whether there is a criminal case to answer
The Metropolitan police have asked the BBC to pause its inquiries into a suspended male presenter while specialist officers decide if there is any justification for a criminal investigation.
The BBC director general, Tim Davie, said the Met had taken control of the inquiry, although the police were still at the “scoping” stage of their inquiries and may decide there was no criminal case to answer.
