Dave Lee Travis Denies Wrongdoing

DJ Dave Lee Travis has denied any wrongdoing after being arrested on Thursday.

 "This is nothing to do with kids," Travis said.

Speaking outside his home near Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire, the 67-year-old protested his innocence and said he did not want his name associated with "bloody evil" child abuse.

He said: "This is nothing to do with kids, all right? That's the first thing. Because that to me is the most important thing in the world and I do not wish to have my name sullied around something that bloody evil, to be honest.

"The second thing I want is to say, yes, there's a complete denial there, but there's nothing else I can tell you because otherwise I might be stepping on the police's feet and I don't want to do that because it might affect their investigations."

His comments come after his weekend radio show was taken off air "with immediate effect" by radio station Magic AM following his arrest on Thursday.

A 1977 episode of Top Of The Pops featuring Travis due to be shown on BBC4 last night was pulled.

Last month, Travis vigorously denied allegations that he groped two women while in BBC studios - one alleged he had put his hand up her skirt, while the other said he had "jiggled" her breasts.

Police said the present allegations against Travis do not directly involve Savile, and are classed under the strand of their investigation termed "others".

Officers are looking at three strands within their inquiry: claims against Savile, those against Savile and others, and those against others, with most of the "others" allegations  being made against people associated with the entertainment industry.

Ex-glam rocker Gary Glitter, comedian Freddie Starr and a 73-year-old man have already been arrested and bailed in connection with the investigation.

Meanwhile, the former judge leading the BBC inquiry into the Savile scandal has launched an appeal for witnesses.
