An American businesswoman allegedly received favorable treatment because of her friendship with Johnson during his time as mayor.
Authorities in London have asked an independent police watchdog to determine if a criminal investigation should be opened of British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's links to an American businesswoman who allegedly received favorable treatment when he was mayor because of their friendship.
The independent office, which oversees police complaints in England, was asked to consider if there were grounds to investigate him for misconduct in public office. Johnson has vociferously denied wrongdoing. She moved to London seven years ago, but British media have reported she relocated to California. An email The Associated Press sent to her firm Saturday did not immediately receive a reply.
