Travis to face retrial for 'assaults'

Former DJ Dave Lee Travis will face a retrial in the UK for charges of sexual assault and indecent assault.

Travis, 69, was acquitted of 12 counts of indecent assault earlier this year but jurors were unable to reach verdicts on one other charge of indecent assault dating back to the early 1990s and one of sexual assault in mid to late 2008.

The former BBC presenter has also formally pleaded not guilty to one additional count of indecent assault on a woman aged over 16 alleged to have taken place on January 17 1995.

Travis, who is charged under his real name of David Griffin, appeared at Southwark Crown Court wearing a pastel grey jacket, black trousers, white shirt and turquoise tie.

Judge Anthony Leonard QC adjourned the case to trial on September 1.
