Police investigating the alleged murder of Ann Widdecombe say there is "nothing to suggest it was politically motivated".

Devon and Cornwall Police added they are not looking for anyone else in connection with her death, following the arrest of a 28-year-old man in Rotherham, South Yorkshire, on Saturday.

The former Conservative MP, 78, was found with serious injuries at her home in Haytor, Devon, on Thursday.
