The article text supplied only contains the Daily Mail website's navigation menu and a list of unrelated headline links from elsewhere on the site; no actual body text covering the Gary Glitter court case was included. As a result, no reliable details about the alleged offence, the court proceedings, or any statements made are available to summarise.

I cannot produce an accurate summary of this specific story without the genuine article content, as doing so would risk fabricating details about a serious criminal allegation. Please provide the full article text or a working link to the story so it can be summarised properly.
