DLT says 'nightmare goes on' as he faces retrial
DJ Dave Lee Travis is to face a retrial on charges of indecent and sexual assault. It follows his acquittal from 12 other charges at a trial earlier in February.
"The nightmare is now going to go on", DLT says
Veteran DJ Dave Lee Travis has said his "nightmare is now going to go on" after learning he faced a retrial on charges of indecent and sexual assault.
Former BBC presenter Travis, 68, was cleared of 12 counts of indecent assault this month but jurors at Southwark Crown Court were unable to reach verdicts on two further charges.
Today, Judge Anthony Leonard heard that prosecutors were seeking a retrial on the two outstanding charges.
Outside court, Travis referred to when he was found not guilty of the 12 counts.
He told reporters: "I told you that I'd been through 18 months of a nightmare and apparently I was wrong because the nightmare is now going to go on."
