The officers are each charged with four counts of sexual assault on a woman in London, say police.

Jerome Beasley, 41, and Luke Robinson, 39, who work in the force's Central West Command Unit, are set to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Wednesday.

The charges relate to an alleged incident at a venue in the capital in April while the officers were off-duty.
