Dan Wootton - An Apology

Last week, the Metropolitan Police and Police Scotland said that they had concluded their investigations and are taking no further action

An article headlined “Met Police launches probe into 'Dan Wootton sex offences' allegations” was published on our website on 2 October 2023 and removed later that day following a complaint from Dan Wootton.

Last week, the Metropolitan Police and Police Scotland said that they had concluded their investigations and are taking no further action.

We accept that we were wrong to have published the article and apologise unreservedly to Mr Wootton for any upset the article may have caused.

Mr Wootton has restated that the police inquiries have exonerated him of any criminal wrongdoing.
