Tulisa Contostavlos' personal assistant Gareth Varey has been cautioned by police for allegedly threatening to kill a newspaper reporter.
The former N-Dubz dancer is claimed by The Sun to have sent an email to one of its reporters in the wake of the paper's [uuid=dfa02914-a5cf-4f68-bc2c-b1dff685b229]drug-buying sting[/uuid] on Tulisa.
He apparently wrote: "I'm going to kill you b*tch."
Scotland Yard's major crime unit said: "Mr Varey was issued with a police caution over this allegation. He apologised."
There has been no suggestion that Tulisa was aware of his actions.
