The Cambridge Crown Court jury was discharged

Two jurors have been arrested for allegedly carrying out research during a sexual offence trial that later collapsed.

Cambridgeshire Police said the allegation arose in March concerning a trial at Cambridge Crown Court where the jury was discharged.

A woman in her 40s and a man in his 60s, both from Cambridge, were arrested on Saturday and Monday respectively.

Both have been released on bail until 17 August.
