PM abused friend, says Savile nephew

JIMMY Savile’s nephew has claimed his friend was abused by Sir Edward Heath as a 14-year-old.

Guy Marsden, who was taken to ‘paedophile parties’ by his uncle from the age of 13, says the alleged attack happened in central London in the 1970s.

Mr Marsden said: ‘[We] would arrive at these parties together, then my friend would disappear. He’d be gone for a while, led away by a man. I am in touch with my friend and he has told me what they did to him and it’s just horrific, absolutely unbelievable stuff.

‘He later told us that Ted Heath was an abuser but that he didn’t know who he was at the time. He said it was a year after the abuse took place that he was watching TV and recognised him.’

Meanwhile, officers in North Yorkshire said they are checking records for any mention of Sir Edward after a photograph emerged of him meeting Peter Jaconelli.

The suspected paedophile and friend of Jimmy Savile is suspected of abusing 35 victims as part of a paedophile ring in Scarborough, where he was mayor.

Police said the former ice cream boss, who died aged 73 in 1999, would have faced a string of charges if he was still alive.
