The chairman of a police liaison group has resigned after it was revealed his daughter’s wedding went ahead in Golders Green earlier this week, despite the coronavirus lockdown.

Moishe Friedlander, from Stamford Hill, quit as chairman of the independent advisory group for police in Hackney.

Police visited the house in Bridge Lane where the ceremony took place twice after complaints from local residents, issuing one penalty notice for breaching social distancing rules.

Video and photos circulated on social media showed a couple being married under a chupah in the garden and decorated tables inside for some 30 or so people.
