Your support makes all the difference.A fresh allegation of sex abuse has been made against the former North Wales police superintendent, Gordon Anglesea.
North Wales police confirmed last night that a file detailing evidence of the new allegation has been forwarded to the Crown Prosecution Service which will decide whether any charges should be brought.
Mr Anglesea, 59, won pounds 375,000 in libel damages in December 1994 after television and newspapers carried reports which branded him a paedophile.
