Max Clifford faces court

Max Clifford, arguably one of Britain's most prolific publicists, faces the charge of 11 seperate indecent assaults.

In a BBC report released today, Clifford, 70, is alleged to have committed indecent assault involving several girls between the ages of 14 and 19 from 1966 to 1985. Recently Clifford was arrested in the wake of the Jimmy Savile child abuse scandal that has rocked the BBC for the past several months. However it is reported that the allegations brought against Clifford were not tied to Savile.

Clifford's clients, past and present include the likes of Simon Cowell, Jane Goody, Gillian McKeith, Rebecca Loos, Justin Fashanu.

He will face the charges on the 28th May at the Westminster Magistrates' Court.
