BBC Reveal Tim Westwood Complaints Despite Previously Claiming There Were None

The BBC have revealed that there have actually been 6 complaints regarding DJ Tim Westwood issued by victims, despite previously claiming that there had been "no evidence of complaints.".

One of the six complaints was referred to the police.The 64 year old was accused of predatory sexual behaviour in a joint investigation by The Guardian and the BBC earlier this year.In the BBC documentary, Tim Westwood: Abuse of Power, seven women came forward and accused Westwood of sexual misconduct between 1992 and 2017 and told their stories which were all similar.

During this time, Director general Tim Davie said that the allegations made against the DJ were "shocking" and the claims made by the women were "powerful and appalling". However, he had insisted that he had seen "no evidence of complaints" from the DJ's years with the BBC.

The BBC are saying that they are taking the newly revealed allegations seriously

"A BBC spokesman said in a statement to BBC News: "This is a historic case that the BBC has found in its files. We are establishing the facts around it.""It did not relate to conduct at the BBC, BBC premises, or conduct towards a BBC staff member, nor was it an accusation of physical assault."The BBC also said: "As we have said, if people have things that they want to raise with the BBC, then they should do so. People have now done so and we will continue to investigate."We also said that we would dig into what happened in the past. We are doing that with great care. All of that work hasn't concluded and is ongoing."We said we would take this seriously, and we are. When that work has concluded, we will say more."Tim Westwood still strongly denies all of the allegations against him.
