Yes it does count,and then that evidence has to be checked and verified, simply saying jimmy savile abused me is not enough no matter how fine and upstanding that citizen is .He may well have abused all these people but unfortunately unless someone has been writing stuff down or has a list of times and dates then i fear it will never go any further than a "she said" accusation
