Former cricketer Shane Warne has broken his silence after he was accused of assaulting a female porn star at a high end London nightclub.
On Monday, Warne tweeted his statement to the "false allegation of assault," saying he had "fully co-operated with police" and has been cleared of any wrongdoing.
"They have now had the opportunity of seeing CCTV and speaking to witnesses," he wrote. "The police have confirmed to me I have been cleared of the allegation and that no further action will be taken.
