Police have dropped a probe into an alleged VIP paedophile ring murder after finding there was no evidence to support the claims.

Officers launched an investigation after a ‘witness’ made a series of claims, including that a girl had died during a VIP paedophile party at the Dolphin Square apartments in Westminster.

But police have reportedly halted their inquiries amid a lack of evidence to back up the claims of the the man, named only as Darren.

According to a report by James Gillespie of the Sunday Times, detectives have become concerned about his behaviour and referred his son to social services.

Darren had sparked an investigation after claiming that he knew of a teenage girl who died during a party at the London flats in the 1990s.

Darren said that the girl disappeared into what was known as the ‘medical room’ at the apartment block – but that he never saw her again and later said he feared she was dead.
