A pair of off-duty Met Police officers have been arrested after allegedly attending a boozy sex party during a holiday in Budapest.

At least two officers were reported by a female colleague who was pulled by the arm into a room during a rave, which involved some 15 colleagues.

The same woman alleged she was later grabbed by another colleague on the night in the Hungarian capital.

One male officer was arrested on Monday on suspicion of assault and another was brought in on Tuesday.

When the party happened was not specified but it was described by The Sun, which first reported the allegations, as a ‘summer break’.

There was no indication that any sexual activity occurred at the party, held at a property rented by the officers through Airbnb.

The ‘wild’ bash involved officers of several ranks, including sergeants and police constables, with several already in sexual relationships.

A source told The Sun that police bosses were ‘deeply embarrassed’ by the ‘wild scenes’ described by reports of the event.

‘It beggars belief that this could happen,’ they said.

Police bosses even convened a ‘gold group’, when specialists are brought in to help the force respond to an incident or investigation.

The police said: ‘Two serving officers have been arrested following an investigation by the Met’s Directorate of Professional Standards.

‘One officer, attached to Central North Command, was arrested on Monday, on suspicion of assault.

‘A second officer, attached to the same command, was arrested on Thursday on suspicion of sexual assault.

‘The incidents are reported to have taken place in Budapest.’
