Announcing the police inquiry, counter-terrorism police unit leader Neil Basu warned against any further publication of leaked documents.
“I would advise all owners, editors and publishers of social and mainstream media not to publish leaked government documents that may already be in their possession, or which may be offered to them, and to turn them over to the police or give them back to their rightful owner, Her Majesty’s Government.”
