Deputy Speaker Nigel Evans in indecent assault arrest
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-22968566
Quote:
Commons Deputy Speaker Nigel Evans has been arrested on suspicion of three counts of indecent assault.
The 55-year-old answered bail following his arrest in May on suspicion of rape and sexual assault, and was told that he faced the additional allegations.
All the allegations involve men in their twenties.
Mr Evans, Conservative MP for Ribble Valley since 1992, has been excused from his parliamentary duties while inquiries continue.
He has previously denied any wrongdoing.
The original rape and sexual assault allegations are said to have happened in Pendleton between July 2009 and March 2013.
The new indecent assault allegations are claimed to have occurred in Blackpool and London between 2003 and 2011.
