Far-right activist Tommy Robinson has been sighted in Tenerife as UK police intensify efforts to locate him for questioning over an alleged assault at London's St Pancras station.
According to sources, Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, arrived on the Spanish island while British authorities continue their investigation into the incident. Witnesses claim the altercation occurred earlier this week, though details remain unclear.
Police Investigation Ongoing
Metropolitan Police confirmed they are treating the St Pancras incident as an assault case and wish to interview Robinson as part of their inquiries. A spokesperson stated: "We are aware of reports regarding Mr. Yaxley-Lennon's current location and are working through appropriate channels."
Robinson's Controversial Past
The activist has a history of legal troubles, including previous convictions for contempt of court and fraud. His presence in Tenerife raises questions about whether he's attempting to avoid UK authorities, though no official comment has been made regarding potential extradition proceedings.
Local authorities in Tenerife have not confirmed whether they are actively searching for Robinson or if they plan to cooperate with British police. The Canary Islands are a popular destination for British tourists and expatriates.
