Undercover police officer denies ‘preying on young women’
AN UNDERCOVER police officer denied that he preyed on young women while infiltrating animal rights activist groups in the 1980s, a public inquiry heard today.
Married father Bob Lambert, who deceived at least four women into sexual relationships and fathered a child, admitted he had no evidence Belinda Harvey was an activist when he started sleeping with her.
The undercover policing inquiry has heard her call him a “cruel and manipulative” liar and that she fell “head over heels” in love with him.
