Gary Glitter refuses to board plane to UK

Convicted paedophile complains of chest pains

Wednesday, 20 August 2008

Gary Glitter refused to board a flight to the UK yesterday – claiming he was suffering from a heart attack.

The pervert was due to leave Bangkok airport, following his release from a Vietnamese prison.

But shortly before he was due to catch a connecting flight to Heathrow, he complained of chest pains and was taken to the VIP area to rest.

It is thought Gary, who was jailed for 27 months for sexually abusing two Vietnamese girls, requested to stay in the country to receive medical treatment.

But police and senior immigration officials refused him entry into the country, insisting he must be deported as soon as possible.

‘Officials concerned are working through the process of putting him on the plane to take him out of the country,’ says a police spokesman.

‘But if he continues to refuse to leave then he will be confined in the (airport transit) area temporarily before being taken into a detention centre.’

If Gary, 64, does agree to fly back to England, he will be forced to sign the sex offenders’ register.

Nine years ago the disgraced star, real name Paul Gadd, was jailed in the UK for possession of child pornography. He served two months.
