He was serving an eight-year sentence for historical sex offences.

He abused four girls aged between 15 and 19 between 1997 and 1985.

Max was cleared of a further count of indecent assault on a teenage girl at his Mayfair offices in the 1980s at Southwark Crown Court.

He was arrested on December 6, 2012, and after a high-profile trial at London's Southwark Crown Court, he was found guilty of eight counts of indecent assault against four victims.
