Spacey facing fresh charges

ACTOR Kevin Spacey will be charged with a further string of sex offences against one man, prosecutors said.

The Crown Prosecution

Service (CPS) said it had authorised seven new charges against the 63-year-old – three of indecent assault, three of sexual assault and one count of causing a person to engage in sexual activity without consent.

The new charges relate to a new complainant and take the total against the Oscar-winning actor to 12.

Spacey appeared at the Old Bailey in July to deny five allegations relating to three men who are now in their 30s and 40s.

The most recent charges are alleged to have occurred between 2001 and 2004.
