News: Al Porter Issues Statement

Irish comedian Al Porter has issued a statement today via his Facebook page.

He wrote the following:

"Today the DPP has directed to drop their case against me.

I would like to thank my family, friends and solicitors, Michael Staines and Aoife Corridan, for their support.

For two long and very anxious years I have co-operated fully and respected the legal process.

I was in complete agreement with waiving anonymity today, even before learning that the DPP had decided to withdraw the charge, because I have always denied any wrongdoing in this case.

I have no further comment at this time.

Thank you."

Porter had been accused of a sexual assault in 2016 in Dublin.
