Scotland Yard has not named Weinstein but confirmed that officers from the Met’s child abuse and sexual offences command had received allegations of sexual assault from 10 victims under Operation Kaguyak.
British police investigating Harvey Weinstein have received a further allegation of sexual assault.
Police in the UK first confirmed they had opened an investigation into Weinstein in early October after Merseyside police received an allegation of sexual assault in the London area in the 1980s, and referred it to Scotland Yard.
Scotland Yard received an allegation that Weinstein sexually assaulted a woman in Westminster in the mid-1990s, bringing the total number of women who have reported the disgraced movie mogul to British police to 10.
