UK police to crackdown on royal wedding stalkers
April 18th, 2011 - 6:42 pm ICT by ANI
London, Apr 18 (ANI): Royal stalkers and obsessives will face a crackdown by UK police in a bid to stop them trying to cause trouble at Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding day.
Police officials plan to make face-to-face assessments of the most disturbed royal fanatics in case they are trying to spoil the royal wedding.
Officials said one major concern involves a small number of mentally-disturbed stalkers who are obsessed with William’s mother, Diana, Princess of Wales.
According to the Daily Express, police want to make sure the most deranged fanatics are seen before the event and possibly even sectioned under the Mental Health Act.
Dossiers on stalkers are kept by the Fixated Threat Assessment Centre, a joint police/mental health unit.
Dossiers featuring the names and photographs of royal stalkers will be distributed to officers at the wedding. If any are spotted on the day, they are likely to be surrounded by plain clothes officers so they cannot get anywhere near the royal procession.
Inquiries have also been made by foreign police forces into a small number of Royal Family obsessives who live in Europe. (ANI)
