A spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police told The Mirror: “Police in Westminster are investigating an allegation of malicious communications against a 40-year-old woman reported on Tuesday, 30 June.”
The message from the hacking group, which originated from infamous forum 4Chan, demanded that Katie should take to her Twitter account to apologise to "those who you have caused pain" and "show positivity to those who are hurt by you".
Finally the clip concluded: “This is your only chance to redeem yourself."
Whoever is found guilty of an offence relating to the threats could face up to six months in prison and/or a fine.
