Paul Gravett, who admitted for the first time his role in the arson plot, claimed that Lambert, while undercover, actively participated in setting fire to a Debenhams store. Gravett revealed the shocking truth, stating that they faced oppression from the fur trade, which motivated their extreme response. Despite his immunity from prosecution, the implications of Lambert’s actions raise profound ethical questions about the role of undercover police in orchestrating crimes instead of preventing them.
David Barr, the inquiry's barrister, highlighted the gravity of Gravett's testimony, referring to it as striking and pivotal, suggesting it could reshape perceptions of police accountability. He emphasized that Gravett’s long-standing silence was broken, shedding light on the previously obscured details surrounding the undercover police operations, particularly Lambert’s controversial involvement in arson that led to significant destruction and public outrage.
