October 10, 2025

UK police on Thursday charged veteran British hip-hop DJ Tim Westwood with multiple counts of rape and sexual assault against young women allegedly between 1983 and 2016.

The charges, which include four accusations of rape, nine counts of indecent assault and two counts of sexual assault, come after several women in 2022 accused the former BBC Radio I DJ of predatory sexual behaviour or groping.

Westwood, 68, is accused of charges relating to seven different women, including indecently assaulting a 17-year-old girl in 1983, raping a woman aged 17-18 between 1995 and 1996, and raping a woman in her 20s in 2010.

Most of the alleged assaults took place in London.
