Gary Glitter denied those accusations of sex with underage girls during questioning on Monday, say the Vietnamese police. The former glam rocker is still in custody whilst investigations continue into the allegations that he had sex with two girls, one of them just twelve years old, at his Vung Tau home. Reports conflict over whether the second girl was actually underage at the time of the alleged liaison with Glitter, as she appears now to be eighteen, that being the legal age of consent in Vietnam.
Meanwhile, Vietnamese authorities have decided to extend Glitter's detention for another three days whilst they continue their investigations. As previously reported, Glitter, real name Paul Gadd, is receiving support from the British consul, who confirm that the star will have access to lawyer as soon as formal charges are made, and describe the Vietnam authorities as "very cooperative".
