The Director of Public Prosecutions has defended the decision to prosecute former Commons deputy speaker Nigel Evans over a string of sex offences charges, saying victims of sex crimes do not always consider themselves victims.
One of the alleged victims of a sexual assault by former Deputy Speaker Nigel Evans, has spoken exclusively to ITV News.
He said some MPs, "seem to think they have a right to try it on," with junior members of staff.
ITV News Political Correspondent Carl Dinnen reports:
MPs hit out at CPS and police as former deputy Speaker Nigel Evans says he endured '11 months of hell'.
There was an element of absurdity in Nigel Evans' trial. But for him, there was nothing to laugh at.
