Former pop star Gary Glitter, known for his rise to fame in the 1970s as a glam-rock star, faced a recent parole hearing where the Parole Board decided against his release. Gary Glitter, whose real name is Paul Gadd, has been serving a 16-year sentence since 2015 for sexually abusing three schoolgirls between 1975 and 1980. Despite being initially released last year, he was recalled to prison for breaching his licence conditions, leading to the denial of his parole bid. The decision follows a closed-door hearing that concluded the 79-year-old's case was not suitable for release into the public. Gary Glitter's continued incarceration signifies the gravity of his offences and the ongoing concern for public safety.
