London: A television divorce pundit has been arrested for allegedly lying about a plot by her husband to poison her.
Lawyer Vanessa Lloyd Platt, who appears on TV shows including GMTV and Richard & Judy, told officers her then husband Daniel Lloyd Platt had tried to spike her food.
Following her allegations last year, police swooped on their £1.5 million (Dh10.3 million) home in Barnet. No charges were ever brought against him.
But on Friday the twice-divorced mother, 53, was arrested on suspicion of attempting to pervert the course of justice.
"She alleges Daniel made comments about being a very good chemist who was able to poison her without anyone finding out. But when we looked at her story we had concerns," said a police source.
