London Mayor Boris Johnson has criticised the use of a portrait of murderer Myra Hindley in a video shown at a London 2012 event in Beijing.
The image was shown during a promotional video advertising London.
A spokesman for the London Mayor told BBC News Boris Johnson was "deeply disturbed" the image had been shown for "a split second".
The video, which was also criticised by the Liberal Democrats, will not be shown again, the spokesman added.
The Lib Dems' Olympics spokesperson said it was a "regrettable choice".
Tom Brake MP said: "Of all the many masterpieces that could could have US mayor jailed for bail breach ...
Man arrested over London murders ...
Mayor Johnson 'misled' by deputy ...
Czech coalition would lose elections now - poll ...
Death penalty for Japan gangster ... been used this was the most regrettable and the least inspired choice."
