Louise Dylan testified in court that she was not groped by Noel Clarke at a wrap party for the 2012 film The Knot. This contradicts a witness statement from Davie Fairbanks, who claimed to have seen the incident. Dylan, supporting Clarke in his libel case against the Guardian, stated that she informed Clarke the allegation was false. The Guardian's defense argues that its reporting was true and in the public interest, citing multiple allegations against Clarke. The court proceedings continue, with more witnesses expected to support Clarke's claims. The Guardian plans to present 26 witnesses who allege serious misconduct by Clarke, including 16 women who claim to have experienced it directly.
