Investigation:
Driving an unmarked Ford Mondeo, police officers were let into the
gated property by Tulisa's personal assistant, Gareth Varey (left), who
refused to comment on her arrest
The Sun reported that her friend, Mike GLC, then allegedly sold half an ounce of cocaine worth around £800 to a
reporter at the Dorchester Hotel in central London as a result of the deal.Her £6million mansion was searched by detectives who arrived at the property with evidence bags and a search book. The Metropolitan Police confirmed searches were completed at two addresses.
Driving an unmarked Ford Mondeo, officers had earlier been let into the gated property by Tulisa's personal assistant, Gareth Varey, who refused to comment on Tulisa's arrest.
Asked if he had anything to say, Mr Varey, dressed casually in camouflage shorts and a white t-shirt, shrugged his shoulders and ran back inside. Detectives in plain clothes spent just over an hour at her home this afternoon before leaving with a large brown paper bag and a large clear bag.
Tulisa arrived back at her home at 6.30pm tonight in a black Chrysler with blacked-out windows, and was driven straight into a garage, so she could not be seen.
