Veteran politician Ann Widdecombe was killed in a “targeted attack”, counter-terrorism police investigating her death have said.
Former MEP Widdecombe, 78, was found dead at her home in Haytor on Dartmoor, Devon, last Thursday.
Counter-terrorism police are now leading the investigation into the former Conservative minister’s death after new evidence came to light, but a senior officer stressed the murder and terror investigations are currently working “in parallel”.
