Tim Westwood charged with sexual offences against two more women

The Metropolitan Police said the former BBC Radio 1 DJ has been charged with indecent assault against a teenage girl aged 16 to 17 in Hammersmith and Fulham in 1991 and the alleged sexual assault of an 18-year-old woman in Wandsworth in 2004.

Tim Westwood foi acusado de delitos sexuais contra mais duas mulheres.

These charges are in addition to those brought against Westwood in October 2025 relating to seven women, which include four counts of rape.

Westwood agora enfrenta um total de 17 acusações envolvendo nove mulheres entre 1983 e 2016.

He previously pleaded not guilty to the four counts of rape he is facing, as well as nine counts of indecent assault and two of sexual assault in Southwark Crown Court, where he is due to face trial on January 25, 2027.

Westwood is set to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on a date yet to be fixed in relation to the latest alleged offences.

O Detetive Superintendente Andy Furphy, da Polícia Metropolitana, disse à Sky News: “As mulheres que fizeram denúncias depositaram sua confiança em nós, e continuamos comprometidos em oferecer todo o apoio disponível.”.

Catherine P Baccas, Deputy Chief Crown Prosecutor, added: “These new charges, following an investigation by the Metropolitan Police, relate to separate reports of non-recent offences in 1991 and 2004 involving two additional women.

Westwood stepped down from his Capital Xtra radio show shortly after the initial allegations emerged, and has consistently denied all claims raised against him.

One alleged victim claims that Westwood indecently assaulted her three times at BBC Studios in the 1990s, and other claims include accusations of rape at a London hotel, sexual assault at a London festival, and other claims of kissing, groping and forcing himself onto the women without consent.
