The Metropolitan Police said a woman was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in a public office.

A WOMAN HAS been arrested after a video was shared on social media allegedly showing a prison officer having sex with an inmate in a jail cell.

The Metropolitan Police said a woman was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in a public office on Friday after officers were made aware of the video reportedly filmed inside HMP Wandsworth.

The force added: “She has been taken into police custody. Enquiries continue.
