This is precisely why Ofcom have had their remit widened to include those making a nuisance of themselves on the internet.

Defamation of character is a civil matter so the police don't have any jurisdiction to get involved. If you feel someone has made libelous comments about you and your legal team have lead you to believe the police will get involved then maybe you should be worried about any other advice they've given you too.
