Former BBC Radio 1 DJ Tim Westwood, 68, is charged with two more alleged sexual offences against two women, bringing the total number of charges to 17, police say. The new allegations include an incident involving a teenage girl and another involving a teenage woman, dating to the 1990s and 2000s.
The Metropolitan Police state that one charge concerns an alleged indecent assault of a girl aged 16 or 17 in Hammersmith and Fulham in 1991. Another charge relates to an alleged sexual assault of an 18-year-old woman in 2004, according to multiple reports. Outlets describe Westwood as facing charges involving nine women across a period spanning from the early 1980s to 2016.
Across the coverage, the core details are consistent: two additional charges are added to an existing case, and the allegations cover multiple incidents and complainants. The reports vary mainly in the specific phrasing of offence descriptions and how broadly they summarize the overall number of charges and timeframe.
