News Item: Michael Barrymore 'Arrested'

Michael BarrymoreClaims That Michael Barrymore Arrested.

It is reported that three men have been arrested on suspicion of murdering Stuart Lubbock. One of the men is said to be the TV presenter and comedian Michael Barrymore. The three men are also accused of a serious sexual assault.

Stuart Lubbock, age 31, was pronounced dead in hospital after he was found at 55-year-old Michael Barrymore’s Essex mansion in March 2001. Post mortem tests indicated Lubbock had drowned and an inquest recorded an open verdict on his death.

The coroner, at the time, said Lubbock had been found with drugs and alcohol in his system and with serious anal injuries, suggesting he had been the victim of a violent sexual assault.

Terry Lubbock’s lawyer previously told BBC TV, "I think there was no way this was a drowning. Something else very sinister happened that night."

The scandal and investigation, back in 2001, virtually ended Michael Barrymore's career in the UK. He left Britain for exile in New Zealand but returned a month ago following the break up with his male partner.
