A Ukrainian man accused of three arson attacks on homes and a car linked to Sir Keir Starmer has appeared in court and been remanded in custody.
Roman Lavrynovych, 21, from Sydenham in south London, had been charged last night by Scotland Yard with three counts of arson with intent to endanger life.
The Ukrainian national is accused of setting the Prime Minister's £2million north London property alight on Monday night.
That blaze happened just days after the torching of a car and a flat which the Labour leader had previously owned. The three fires took place between May 8 and 12.
The Ukrainian appeared in the dock at Westminster Magistrates' Court today wearing a prison grey tracksuit, accompanied by a Ukrainian interpreter, and spoke to confirm his name and address.
