A court hears that police closed a rape investigation in Tottenham, north London, before the man accused of subsequent murders allegedly committed further attacks. According to reporting, prosecutors say the suspect—Simon Levy—was linked to a sexual assault at or near a car park in Tottenham. The court is told that police later closed the rape case several months before Levy was arrested and charged in relation to two additional murders. One of the later alleged murders is reported to have occurred in the same area, including a car park connected to the earlier sex attack. The hearings focus on what authorities did at the time the rape allegation was being investigated and how that case was handled before later killings. The articles describe claims made in court rather than established findings, and do not provide details on the reasons given for closing the rape investigation. The matter remains subject to the court process, including any evidence and submissions to be considered by the judge and jury.
