Savile sex crime police ‘to arrest more celebrities’ in Operation Yewtree
probe Thursday 14 Mar 2013
Police investigating the
Jimmy Savile sex abuse scandal are preparing to arrest more celebrities within
weeks, it has been revealed.
Some ‘very high-profile figures’ are said to
be among the new names reported to Operation Yewtree detectives by alleged
victims.
The police promise comes as former Radio 1 DJ Dave Lee Travis
was arrested for the second time over alleged sexual offences – though he again
proclaimed his innocence.
Operation Yewtree was set up last year amid
revelations of how the late TV presenter and DJ Savile had escaped prosecution
despite decades of allegations against him.
Among those already arrested
since the probe was launched are Travis, comedian Jim Davidson, PR consultant
Max Clifford and disgraced pop star Gary Glitter.
All have declared their
innocence.
Nazir Afzal, from the Crown Prosecution Service, has now told
a child abuse seminar in London that more arrests are imminent....

Ex-Radio 1 DJ Dave Lee Travis arrested over fresh sex abuse
allegations Wednesday 13 Mar 2013
Former
Radio 1 DJ Dave Lee Travis has been re-arrested on a string of new sex
allegations, Scotland Yard has confirmed.
The 67-year-old was questioned
when he answered bail on Monday about 11 new ‘incidents’ that have come to
light.
According to sources, the claims date back to the 1970s and
1980s.
Mr Travis was originally arrested in November of last year. At the
time, he strenuously denied any wrongdoing.
Speaking outside his home in
Bedfordshire today, the former Top of the Pops host told reporters: ‘I
have been into a police station and I have had a chat with them and that is
it.
‘They have told me they will make a decision in April.
‘I have
not been charged with anything and that is it at the moment. I have to wait
until they make up their minds.’....
