UK Drops Indecent Assault Charges Against Harvey Weinstein

Prosecutors cite insufficient evidence for conviction in 1996 case involving former Hollywood producer.

The Crown Prosecution Service has discontinued charges against Weinstein due to lack of realistic prospect of conviction.
The charges were related to an alleged assault in London in 1996 involving a woman now in her 50s.
Weinstein remains in U.S. custody, facing a retrial in New York and a 16-year sentence in California.
His 2020 conviction in New York was overturned due to improper testimony admission.
Weinstein continues to deny all allegations of non-consensual sexual encounters.
