Simon Wood, who was 54, is alleged to have molested children during stopovers in Kenya after claiming he was carrying out charity work for British Airways. Lawyers say he had access to hundreds of vulnerable youngsters over many years. BA said it first became aware of the allegations when it received an anonymous letter in July. In a statement, the airline said it was shocked and horrified and had called in the police.
