London’s Metropolitan Police are not investigating the Great Israeli Real Estate Event which took place on Sunday, Middle East Eye has learnt.
The revelation comes after British Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper announced that ministers have asked the Advertising Standards Authority to investigate the event, which was held at the Edgware United Synagogue in London.
On Monday Middle East Eye revealed details of properties advertised in illegal Israeli settlements at the event, which was held at the Edgware United Synagogue.
MEE understands the Met has received a referral relating to the event and has grouped it with other referrals relating to what the force calls the “Israel-Hamas conflict”.
A Counter Terrorism Policing spokesperson said: “The Counter Terrorism Policing (CTP) War Crimes Team has received around 240 referrals relating to the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict since 7 October, 2023.”
