WORBOYS IN NEW QUIZ
BLACK cab rapist John Worboys has reportedly been quizzed by police over allegations of non-recent sexual assault.
Police said they had interviewed a 61-year-old man under caution last month in Yorkshire but would not confirm his identity.
But the man questioned was the notorious sex attacker, according to reports.
Scotland Yard said the allegations, which arose after an investigation was launched in January this year, include sexual assault and administering a substance with intent to commit a sexual offence.
The alleged offences are said to have been committed between 1997 and 2007. In a statement the force said: “An investigation was launched in January 2018 after a number of women contacted police with information.
“Since then, officers have assessed all the information provided and established there are a number of allegations that required investigation. Police also sought early investigative advice from the Crown Prosecution Service.”
Worboys was jailed indefinitely in 2009 with a minimum term of eight years after being found guilty of 19 offences, including rape, sexual assault and drugging, committed against 12 victims.
Police believe he committed crimes against 105 women from 2002 to 2008.
