It was reported the allegations do not relate to a separate Tory MP, who is currently on bail in relation to sexual assault claims that he denies.

A Surrey Police spokesman said: “We can confirm a man was arrested yesterday morning [Oct 25] on suspicion of rape and possession of controlled substances.

“He has been released on conditional police bail pending further enquiries.”
