		</div><p>Former pop star Gary Glitter &#8211; who was found guilty of sexually abusing three schoolgirls &#8211; has today lost a British Court of Appeal challenge against his conviction.</p>
<p>Glitter was found guilty of abuse relating to a girl aged 12, one of 13, and another aged under 10, committed when he was at the height of his fame.</p>
<p>Allegations against him only came to light decades later when he became the first person to be arrested under Operation Yewtree, the investigation launched by the Metropolitan Police in the wake of the Jimmy Savile scandal.</p>
<p>Lord Justice Treacy, Mrs Justice Elisabeth Laing and David Maddison rejected Glitter’s complaints centred on adverse publicity, the trial judge’s refusal to stay the proceedings against him as an “abuse of process”, and that his defence team had insufficient time to prepare his case.</p>
<p>He found fame in the 1970s as part of the glam rock scene, scoring number one hits with I’m The Leader Of The Gang (I Am), I Love You Love Me Love and Always Yours.</p>
