Operation Yewtree Police Arrest 'BBC Star' on Suspicion of Sexual Assault
By EWAN PALMER : Subscribe to Ewan's RSS feed | October 31, 2013 11:58 AM GMT

A well-known BBC television and radio personality has been arrested as part of Operation Yewtree on suspicion of sexual offences, according to reports.

Police arrested a 64-year-old man at an address in south London on 29 October as part of the inquiry which was launched in the wake of the Jimmy Savile sex scandal.

According to the Sun, the man who was arrested is a well-known celebrity and was easily recognised by an eyewitnesss, who also saw material being removed from his home by police.

"There's no doubt who it was," he told the newspaper.

The BBC has refused to confirm whether one of their stars was arrested as part of the investigation and his name has not been revealed by police. A 74-year-old man who also arrested in south London on suspicion of sexual offences has also not been named.

Both men have been bailed until January pending further enquiries. A Met Police spokesperson said that both fell under the inquiry term "others", meaning that their alleged offences were not related to the Top of the Pops presenter who died in 2011.

The men were the 15th and 16th people to be arrested under Operation Yewtree. DJ Dave Lee Travis, entertainer Rolf Harris and PR consultant Max Clifford have been charged and are due to stand trial charges of sexual offences.

All three deny the allegations.

Other high-profile names to have been arrested include comedian Freddie Starr and singer Gary Glitter.

David Smith, a former BBC driver and convicted paedophile who was also arrested as part of the operation, was found dead at his London home on the first day of his trial for sexual offences.[/quote]

Mark Williams-Thomas talks about how he put together the wonderful Savile Exposure, without first checking people's ages or actually having any actual evidence into what he's going on about, or checking up on any of the loonies, he put on the programme. I'm sure we'll all attend this fabulous talk, complete with bag of tomatoes & buckets of pigswill. Thank you. I guarantee his days of being treated as an 'expert' are numbered.

MCR Media	fatherandy2.proboards.com/thread/80292/o...amp;scrollTo=1805238 Quote from RALiverpool The more names like this that Yewtree seems to bring up, the less I am inclined to trust in the integrity of the police conducting the whole investigation, and their motives, rather than some of those who are being arrested. It's starting to get absurdly unbelievable how various BBC personnel are picked up, plus the usual dated politically incorrect comedians; and yet next to no former politicians/political civil servants, or hospital administrators in high places have been arrested in relation to various Operation Yewtree strands. Now the BBC have gutlessly removed him from his radio show (First record played 1973 Roberta Flack - The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face to last record he played 2013 Lorde - Royals), despite him not yet being charged of any offence on the basis of no more than an arrest during an investigation. Clearly the BBC are now operating a guilty until proven innocent nowadays it seems, and a simple arrest is enough to trash a reputation. Funny how he's just had a lot of positive publicity over his 40th anniversary on BBC radio and all the positive publicity that brought; the start of the the tabloid phone-hacking trial(s) and now this. To me all this suggests as the Leveson enquiry confirmed the Police, Right-Wing tabloids & the right wing Government are the Establishment and have been since Thatcher visited "Uncle" Rupert (Murdoch) on his yacht in the Caribbean back in 1980, and woe betide anyone who goes against that as MP Andrew Mitchell found out last year. And now the Establishment can use Gambaccini to bury bad news and protect one of their own: www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/104218...will-be-brought.html

Andy	After all the hints, from which many guessed his identity, it has now been confirmed. www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-24779908 www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2013/nov/01/...es-operation-yewtree No doubt now he has been officially named, lots of compo seekers will come out of the woodwork with stories of their supposed encounters.
