A police superintendent is among three people charged following an investigation into indecent images of a child.

Novlett Robyn Williams, 54, was charged with one count of possession of an indecent image of a child of category A severity – the most serious level of child abuse images.

The frontline Metropolitan Police officer also faces one count of corrupt or improper exercise of police powers and privileges by a constable in failing to report the distribution of the image.

Williams was placed on restricted duties once the investigation began on 4 February 2018 and remains so following a review.

She will appear at Willesden Magistrates’ Court on 12 March along with Jennifer Hodge, 55, and Dido Massivi, 61, both of Deacon Road, Willesden, northwest London.

Hodge was charged with distributing an indecent image of a child of category A severity.

Massivi was charged with two counts of distributing an indecent image of a child of category A severity and one count of possession of extreme pornography.

They were all charged on 15 February 2019.
