Savile 'Caught With Young Girl In Rolls' Appeal

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 17 Oktober 2013 | 22.11

A man who claimed he caught Jimmy Savile parked in a lay-by with a young girl has been urged to contact police.

Paul Leonard, 68, told reporters he was working for Leeds City Police in the 1960s when he spotted the shamed DJ's Rolls-Royce in a secluded spot near Roundhay Golf Club in Leeds.

He claimed Savile warned him: "I'm waiting for midnight when she turns 16... so p**s off if you want to keep your job."

In the interview with the Daily Mirror, Mr Leonard, whose name was changed at his request, said: "There wasn't a copper in Leeds who didn't know Savile was a pervert."

West Yorkshire Police are appealing for the man, who also spoke on BBC Radio 2, to get in touch.

A spokesman said: "During West Yorkshire Police's recent Operation Newgreen investigation into Savile, the force repeatedly appealed for anyone with information to contact us.

"We made extensive appeals both within the organisation and publicly through the media for anyone with information, including serving and former officers, to contact us.

"To our knowledge, Mr Leonard was not one of those who made contact.

"Given that (he) used a pseudonym, a false name, in his media interviews, his identity or the content of what he says is very difficult to verify.

"We are however keen to speak to Mr Leonard in order that this can be investigated thoroughly."

Mr Leonard claimed it was common knowledge among Leeds City Police, which later became West Yorkshire Police, that Savile "liked them young", but said his influence meant officers were too scared to confront him.

He said the girl in the car was "definitely young", adding: "She looked around 15, and dressed herself like the model Twiggy."

"I looked over to her and asked her if she was OK, and she just smiled at me but didn't say anything," he said.

"Looking back I feel bad about it but he had so much influence. I would definitely have lost my job."

Later, at the end of his shift, he recounted the incident to his sergeant who told him: "Shut up, son, he's got friends in high places. If you know what's good for you, you'll leave it there."

On Wednesday, it emerged the police watchdog is investigating claims a former inspector acted on behalf of Savile before he was interviewed by officers over alleged sex crimes.

It came a day after transcripts of a 40-minute interview detailing Savile's suspected sexual abuse were made public for the first time.

Savile is suspected to have raped 34 women and girls and sexually assaulted up to 450 people, including some as young as eight, according to an official report.

He died in 2011, aged 84.
