Mike Freer: Two people charged with arson after fire at Tory MP’s office over Christmas
Two people have been charged in connection with a fire at the office of Conservative MP Mike Freer that took place over Christmas.
Paul Harwood, 42, and Zara Kasory, 32, both of no fixed address, were arrested on 3 January and have been charged with arson with intent.
They were further charged with one count of arson without intent relating to a fire at the back of a restaurant in Long Lane in Finchley, north London, at around 11pm on Christmas Eve.
There were no reported injuries from either incident.
The fire at Mr Freer’s office started at around 7pm on 24 December at Ballards Lane in Finchley.
Police and the London Fire Brigade were called to the scene where the blaze was extinguished.

The Metropolitan Police said the incident is not being treated as a hate crime.
Both suspects are due to appear at Willesden Magistrates’ Court on Thursday.
The proposed bill included a list of targetable offenses, including the theft of cryptocurrencies, ransomware attacks, and pig butchering scams.
The judge suggested that a brief stay while awaiting a ruling in a similar case in the appellate court could “reduce the burden of litigation.”
Crypto inclusion in 401(k) plans may be more significant for Bitcoin than the 2024 launch of US spot Bitcoin ETFs, according to Bitwise’s European head of research.
