London Mayor Sadiq Khan has called for killer cop Wayne Couzens to lose his police pension.

The former Metropolitan Police officer, from Deal, was jailed for life after abducting, murdering and raping Sarah Everard in 2021.

Since then, Couzens, 50, has also been sentenced for three counts of indecent exposure.

Now, Sadiq Khan has contacted the Home Office calling for the twisted killer to be stripped of the pension he earned while working for the Civil Nuclear Constabulary (CNC) between 2011 and 2018.

He worked at the CNC before joining Met Police, where he committed a number of offences.

Mr Khan contacted Energy Secretary Grant Shapps to ask him to take similar measures as the Home Secretary did over Couzens' pension.

He wrote: "I note that Couzens joined the Civil Nuclear Constabulary (CNC) in 2011 as a constable. When he transferred to the MPS in 2018, he did not transfer his pension service.

"It remains there, and is not covered by the pension forfeiture certificate I was able to obtain as it sits outside the normal police pension regulations."

Mr Khan says this means Couzens would have seven years' of a deferred pension.

A spokesperson for the mayor added: "It will be totally unacceptable if Couzens remains entitled to a single penny of his pension - it would be very difficult for his victims and the wider public to comprehend.

"The rules need to be tightened to ensure anyone who commits such abhorrent crimes can have their publicly-funded pension removed swiftly and in full."
