British Transport Police are sending two detectives to the IOPC over how they handled the case of Simon Levy — a convicted murderer and rapist who assaulted women on the Tube in October 2024. After his life sentence, both BTP and the Met admitted major failures in the investigation. Levy was arrested in November 2024 but remained on bail until May 2025 — during which time he committed more assaults and murders. The IOPC, which received the referral just days after sentencing, is also examining two Met officers involved. Families of victims Carmenza Valencia-Trujillo, Sheryl Wilkins, and the survivor of one rape attack have been notified as the watchdog launches its probe.
