Roebuck arrested on sex charges George Dobell

May 15, 2001 Text size: A | A Peter Roebuck has been arrested on three charges of indecent assault. According to the BBC, the former Somerset cricket captain has been accused of inviting three teenage boys back to his Taunton home for private coaching before indecently assaulting them. Avon and Somerset police began their investigation after complaints by three 19-year-olds that they were assaulted, on separate occasions, between 1998 and 1999. Roebuck is the man widely credited with rebuilding the Somerset side after the debacle of the departures of Botham, Richards and Garner. He also captained an England XI in the Netherlands and is one of the most respected writers on the game. Roebuck was released on bail and will appear before Taunton Deane Magistrates on Thursday.
