Glitter maintains denial as trial starts

Gary Glitter has denied obscene acts with two girls as his court case begins in Vietnam.

The former rock star's lawyer confirmed he denies all charges – that he molested one 11-year-old girl and another aged 12 at his home in the country.

As the accused – real name Paul Gadd – left the court during lunch, reporters asked him if the girls were lying and whether he had pleaded innocent. He answered both questions with nods.

A verdict is expected on Friday. If convicted, Glitter could be jailed for up to seven years.
