Kevin Spacey is vowing to fight tooth and nail to prove his innocence after British police charged the disgraced actor with five counts of sexual assault

Authorities are requesting 62-year-old Kevin Spacey return to the United Kingdom voluntarily or face possible extradition.

Now, while the Oscar winner is accused of historic sexual assaults, he can only be formally charged if he returns to the country.

In a statement, Spacey says he intends to fight the allegations and will ‘voluntarily appear’ in the United Kingdom to do so.

Spacey is pleading with the public to allow a fair trial, and notes he is innocent until proven guilty.

Last week, police moved ahead with the charges, which cons four counts of sexual assault on three males, now all in their 30s and 40s.

There is also a fifth count, with allegations, that Spacey forced one of the victims to engage in penetrative sex without consent.

This charge carries a maximum sentence of life in prison.

The Iranian government responds as U.S. authorities detail claims of an assassination plot linked to the Revolutionary Guard Corps.

In a significant development, Iran has broken its silence following allegations that an Iranian national was connected to a murder-for-hire plot aimed at former President Donald Trump.

The U.S. Department of Justice reported that Farhad Shakeri, 51, admitted to being directed by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps to carry out the assassination on October 7.

The case underscores heightened tensions between the U.S. and Iran, especially amid ongoing geopolitical disputes and U.S. sanctions on Tehran.

The Iranian government’s response, though measured, comes as observers highlight the serious nature of such allegations, emphasizing potential repercussions on international relations and security policies.

Analysts believe this could further strain already fragile diplomatic ties and potentially influence future talks on issues like nuclear agreements and regional security.
