Sex: Viscount Linley denies sex claims

The Sydney Morning Herald reports that Viscount Linley, the Queen's nephew, allegedly blackmailed over a claim that he had sex with an aide at a party, has said the accusations were false, according to a statement read out in court on Tuesday.

Linley, said he was aware of comments allegedly made in the video by his aide - identified in court only as "Witness D" - but said they were untrue.

"As far as these comments, attributed to 'D', about my personal and professional life are concerned, I can only say they are spurious and without foundation," he was quoted as saying.

Ian Strachan, 31, and Sean McGuigan, 41, are accused of a complicated blackmail plot against the royal. Both deny the charge, and accused an unnamed friend of the royal of entrapping him.
