DescriptionPolice say they are aware an internet prankster has seemingly been registered to stand as a general election candidate in multiple constituencies.

The name of YouTuber Niko Omilana, who stood in the London mayoral election three years ago, is on the ballot as an independent in at least 11 constituencies.

However, it is unclear whether it is the same candidate or different ones who have legally changed their names.

The Electoral Commission said it was an offence to provide false information on nomination papers and also to stand in more than one constituency.
