DETECTIVES probing the Westminster paedophile ring are investigating bombshell evidence that an MP was involved in the murder of a child in a snuff movie.
A young boy sold for sex is said to have died in a torture session filmed at Amsterdam’s notorious Blue Boy vice club.
Allegations that the unnamed MP was present can be revealed today. The claims mean police are now investigating FOUR child murders linked to the alleged abuse ring.
Informants said the MP was present at the murder after going to Holland for sex with boys supplied by paedo fixer Warwick Spinks.
Met detectives are now re-examining files on Spinks amid claims he was a regular visitor to Elm Guest House, where the alleged systematic abuse of children sparked the original VIP inquiry in 2012.
Boys were allegedly taken to the guest house in Barnes, South-West London, and Dolphin Square flats near Westminster, to have sex with VIPs and MPs including Cyril Smith.
Yesterday it emerged that police who investigated Spinks in the 1990s were told a boy had died at the club while the MP was present.
A source said: “Officers were told Spinks knew the MP and arranged a tour to Amsterdam. While there he went to the Blue Boy bar, where Spinks was running a brothel.
“The MP was said to have been present when a boy died during an orgy which was being filmed. The information was not confirmed and the MP’s identity never surfaced.
“However, clear evidence that boys were tortured was discovered.”
Spinks was jailed in 1995 for sex offences, including abducting a boy of 14 and taking him to Amsterdam.
Evidence from the Spinks investigation is now being analysed by the Met’s three-pronged probe into networks of VIP paedophiles.
The team are already probing three other alleged child murders, one by a Tory MP.
The families of two boys believed to have been murdered by Sidney Cooke’s paedophile gang are also urging police to investigate possible links to the VIP ring.
Police were last night accused of covering up claims that a senior MP abused a boy at a gay brothel.
The victim is said to have named the MP when interviewed by detectives probing claims of abuse at the Elm Guest House in the 1980s.
But his claim — heard by a social worker — was allegedly left out of his statement after Special Branch or MI5 intervened to protect the MP.

Scotland Yard ‘hid top MP’s name’ in sex abuse inquiry: Police ‘buried young boy’s testimony in Establishment cover up’
Police were accused last night of covering up allegations that a senior politician abused a boy at a notorious gay brothel.
Interviewed by detectives, the youngster suggested he was molested by an MP at Elm Guest House, which was allegedly frequented by numerous paedophiles with Westminster connections.
But the Daily Mail has learnt that the schoolboy’s comments – heard by a social worker – were mysteriously left out of his Scotland Yard statement.
Retired detectives believe his 1982 testimony may have been ‘sanitised’ at the request of Special Branch and the security services, which feared Soviet spies would exploit the hugely embarrassing claims.
The cover-up allegations will deepen the controversy surrounding the guesthouse in Barnes, south-west London, and the wider scandal involving an alleged VIP paedophile ring in the 1980s.
Last month Scotland Yard launched an investigation into claims that three boys may have been murdered around 30 years ago at a block of luxury flats in London which has long been popular with MPs.
The new twist concerns the chilling testimony of the boy who was of primary school age and suffered horrific abuse at the brothel.
When he was taken to a place of safety, the boy told detectives and social workers his abusers included a man he knew as ‘Uncle xxxxx’ who worked ‘at the big houses’.
Officials present at the interview concluded he was referring to a senior politician who was a household name.
It is believed the politician was never properly investigated.
Inside the house of horrors: Revealed in chilling detail, how a boy taken to infamous gay brothel gave name of a senior politician he said abused him there to the police – who left the MP’s name OUT of their report
Bedtime at a large Edwardian house in a genteel London suburb.
In a room on one of the upper floors, a small boy is taken to a bedroom by a middle-aged woman. The world beyond the curtains is dark and cold.
On the common across the street, huge trees rustle and loom scarily. It is not a night to be outside.
In the bedroom, the child lies quietly as the woman speaks.
Across the city, countless other youngsters must be listening to lullabies and fairy tales; the confirmations of love, comfort and security before sleep.
But not this boy. He is full of foreboding. That is because his night terrors are not imaginary but real — and inflicted upon him with this woman’s connivance.
Tonight, her bedside chat would sound very odd to an eavesdropper.
She calls the boy a ‘little queen’ and talks of him doing ‘tricks’ for money: £20 a time.
He knows that soon after she leaves him, a strange man will come into the room and close the door. The stranger will then undress and the boy’s ordeal will begin again.
Eventually the boy, who is of primary school age, will tell this heart-breaking story to the authorities. But, as we shall see, scandalously little will be done to investigate those allegedly responsible.
For more than 30 years, the now-defunct Elm Guest House in Rocks Lane, Barnes, South-West London, has been at the centre of serious and often sensational allegations concerning paedophile activity.
The main contention has long been that the address was a meeting place for a VIP paedophile ring which held orgies and abused young boys, many of whom were in local authority care.
A list of famous alleged attendees, including Cabinet ministers, MPs, churchmen, pop stars, spies, judges, tycoons and members of the royal household, has been widely circulated.
While supporting evidence for the presence of most of those named remains elusive, police accept that the late Liberal MP Cyril Smith, a known child abuser, was indeed a visitor to the guest house.
New claims, and a resurgence of interest in the historic allegations, culminated in the launch last year of Operation Fernbridge, a full police investigation into what is supposed to have happened at Rocks Lane. This summer, Home Secretary Theresa May announced a wide-ranging independent inquiry into historic child sex abuse by prominent individuals.
Last week, Mrs May suggested that the allegations aired so far — including a claim of three child murders by Westminster-linked paedophiles who frequented exclusive flats in the Thames-side Dolphin Square — amounted to the ‘tip of the iceberg’.
Both inquiries would like to get hold of a dossier of alleged abuses handed to the then Home Secretary, Leon Brittan, by Tory MP Geoffrey Dickens in November 1983.
Lord Brittan has explained that he passed the dossier to Home Office officials for examination, but the dossier remains missing from Whitehall files. There have been repeated suggestions of an Establishment cover-up.
For the past two years, the Mail has pursued its own investigation into the Elm Guest House story and child abuse by senior figures.
We led the way in revealing how a young man called Peter Hatton-Bornshin, who as a schoolboy was allegedly abused at Elm Guest House, killed himself in 1994, aged 28. Friends say the emotional trauma he suffered at Rocks Lane drove him to his drugs-related death.
We have also examined the circumstances surrounding the death of Carole Kasir, the German-born owner-manager of the Elm Guest House. She’d always maintained that the business was nothing more sinister than a gay-friendly hotel.
A coroner decided that she had killed herself, again with a drugs overdose, but child protection campaigners claimed she was murdered as part of the VIP cover-up.
One friend told us Kasir had boasted she had a stash of incriminating photographs in a bank vault, for which she had turned down an offer of £20,000. One of those pictures allegedly included Cyril Smith.
Last week, the local Tory MP, Zac Goldsmith, repeated allegations that a former Cabinet minister was photographed with a naked boy in the sauna of Elm Guest House. If so, that picture has yet to emerge.
It is often hard to separate fact and fiction in the Elm Guest House affair. Over three decades, so much has been muddied by conspiracy theorists, fantasists, those bent on making political capital, and those with personal grudges who have practised smear by association.
As always, it is best to listen to those who were directly involved.
Today, following fresh investigations during which we spoke to former social workers, council officials, retired police officers, lawyers, campaigners and other key witnesses, we can present a compelling picture of Elm Guest House in the weeks leading up to its final closure in June 1982.
In particular, we can reveal that a social worker was present when the boy described above identified a senior politician as being one of his abusers. Crucially, that social worker alleges that when he later saw the police transcript of that interview, the MP’s name was missing.
The boy happened to be at the property when it was raided by police.
The never-before-published details of what the child claimed to have suffered at the Rocks Lane address — supported by medical evidence — are deeply shocking. Much is simply too disturbing to print. Equally, while the Mail knows his name, we are being careful not to publish details which could result in him being identified.
Under Carole Kasir’s ownership, Elm Guest House was transformed from a nondescript suburban hotel into a gay rendezvous which was advertised in Gay News and other specialist publications. These included the newsletter of the Conservative Group for Homosexual Equality, which ‘strongly recommended’ the guest house to its gay Tory readers.
At the time (it was still only 15 years after the decriminalisation of homosexual acts), complaints of police harassment against the gay community were commonplace.
Elm Guest House was under observation because of reports that it was being run as a brothel. Yet police interest in what was going on there in the early summer of 1982 was also focused on reports of there being a number of ‘vulnerable’ children on the premises.
Two young officers were selected to pose as a gay couple to go undercover as guests at Elm Guest House and find out more. Contemporary accounts show that the pair went to the address on June 12, 1982.
At the door, they were greeted by a youth called Lee, who, aged 16, was five years below what was then the gay age of consent.
Once inside, the two officers were introduced to other members of the guest house staff, including a man called ‘Nellie’ and a barman named Errol, both of whom called the policemen ‘dear’. Lee then took the officers upstairs.
After being shown their £17-a-night room, the policemen were asked by Lee if they knew what other ‘services’ were on offer at Elm Guest House. They were told there was a sauna in Room 7, a selection of gay sex videos and a top-floor room in which Lee ‘massaged’ guests.
‘Nellie’ was equally solicitous. Were the officers married, he asked. If so, it didn’t matter; there would be no questions asked about their identity. The staff at the guest house were unimpeachably discreet, and were all gay apart from Mrs Kasir.
That is what made Elm Guest House unique; it was the only gay joint run by a straight woman. Later, the officers were told that Kasir had run the guest house as a ‘straight’ establishment for two years, before deciding that an exclusively gay clientele would be more lucrative.
