Angela Rayner faces renewed pressure after it emerged six of her former neighbours have been questioned by police in the 'two homes' probe.
One resident has even said they are prepared to give evidence in court contradicting the account of the Labour deputy leader.
Ms Rayner maintains that an ex-council house she sold for a £48,500 profit in 2015 was her 'principal property'.
But neighbours say she was actually living at her husband's house a mile away.
Police are now investigating potential breaches of electoral law, a failure to pay capital gains tax and whether a single-occupancy council tax discount was falsely claimed by Ms Rayner.
