Gary Glitter’s parole hearing not due until next year

A parole hearing to decide whether paedophile pop star Gary Glitter, pictured here in 1994, should be freed from jail again is not expected to take place until next year

The disgraced glam rock singer, who had a string of chart hits in the 1970s, was taken back to prison in March for breaching his licence conditions, reportedly by trying to use the dark web, less than six weeks after walking free. The Parole Board, which decides whether criminals recalled to prison, those serving life sentences and terrorists can be released, said it is considering an application for a public hearing but so far no decision has been made.

Glitter was at the height of his fame when he preyed on his victims, who thought no-one would believe their claims because of his celebrity status.
