Radio 5 Live presenter George Riley is said to have been suspended by the BBC following claims of sexual harassment, according to the Sunday Times. Mr Riley was absent from the Wales v Papua New Guinea rugby coverage yesterday despite covering previous Rugby League World Cup events for the station. 
The sports presenter has allegedly been accused of groping five female colleagues, sources told the Sunday Times. He has been a presenter of Radio 5 live Breakfast since 2011 and has spent seven years at the station.
The allegations came to light as it emerged the BBC’s most senior female presenters have formed a group to 'discuss issues' amid claims of sexual harassment and assault at the organisation.
