PM orders investigation into MI5 over false evidence

Prime Minister Orders Investigation into MI5 Over False Evidence The British Prime Minister has ordered an investigation into the country's domestic intelligence agency, MI5, for providing false evidence to three courts. The investigation will examine why MI5 gave inaccurate information about conversations with BBC News. The issue came to light during a hearing related to the prosecution of a former MI5 employee. The agency had claimed it had no record of certain conversations with the BBC, but it later emerged that this was untrue. The Prime Minister has expressed concern over the matter and has instructed the investigation to determine the full extent of the problem and to identify any systemic issues within MI5 that may have led to the false evidence being provided. The inquiry will also assess the impact of the false information on the legal proceedings and recommend measures to prevent such incidents from happening in the future. The investigation is seen as a crucial step in ensuring the integrity and accountability of the UK's intelligence services.
