Dave Lee Travis formally charged over further alleged indecent assault
By Andy Malt | Published on Thursday 17 April 2014
Radio DJ Dave Lee Travis has been charged with another count of indecent assault, dating back to 1995. This is in addition to the indecent assault and sexual assault charges for which he is currently facing a retrial.
As previously reported, Travis, real name David Griffin, was acquitted of twelve sexual offences in February, but a jury was unable to reach a decision on two charges against him, for which he is awaiting a retrial. It was announced last month that the further charge would also be brought by the Crown Prosecution Service, but that fact was only made formal this week.
Following a hearing on 28 Mar, Travis said: “It’s been a bit of a nightmare. And the only thing I want to say is this: The nightmare is continuing”.
He remains on bail until his next hearing at Westminster Magistrates Court on 24 Apr.
