PR paedo Max Clifford ‘performed sex acts in front of woman, 28, when she visited him in jail’
Sickened fellow prisoners grassed up the disgraced former PR guru, 73
SHAMED Max Clifford has been accused of performing sex acts in front of a 28-year-old woman during jail visits.
The ex-PR guru, 73, was twice reported for alleged indecency while the fan was with him at HMP Littlehey, Cambs.
Digusted fellow lags shopped Clifford after he allegedly performed sex acts in front of a besotted fan 45 years his junior.
The 73-year-old was twice accused of indecency while the 28-year-old woman was visiting him in prison.
Jail bosses are taking the claims against the former celebrity publicist seriously after they were made by two separate inmates.
A source said: “It takes a lot for other prisoners to report anyone as they don’t like to be seen as grasses — but this has really sickened them.”
The Sun understands that Clifford was reported to governors for an alleged incident two weeks ago at HMP Littlehey near Huntingdon, Cambs.
A previous claim was also reported in January.
Staff are now closely monitoring the convicted paedophile — who is serving eight years for historical sex offences.

The source said: “This girl is a lot younger than Clifford and has been visiting him for a while.
“But he has now been reported by other prisoners for apparently doing things to himself while she was sitting opposite him.
“Visits take place in a visiting room while other relatives and friends are about.
“He sits behind a table and she is opposite him and presumably knows what he is doing.”
Clifford was accused of performing solo sex acts and if he were caught in future he could face a new police investigation for indecency.
And while his visits would be likely to continue, governors could force them to be “closed”’ — where cons sit behind a glass screen under supervision.
Punishments could also include a loss of earned privileges.

The source revealed: “Clifford is not popular.
“He has an incredibly seedy reputation in the jail.
“Staff and inmates think it is odd, to say the least, that this pretty young woman is visiting him at all.
"He is 45 years older than her and they are not related or anything — so it is hard to see why she is coming in to see him.”
The Sun understands that the woman who goes to see Clifford has not made any complaint about him.
She declined to comment when we approached her.
Clifford was jailed for eight years in May 2014 for eight historic sexual assaults on four teenagers aged 15 to 19.
The Sun reported in 2013 how he initially faced 11 sex assault charges.
Southwark Crown Court Judge Anthony Leonard said Clifford had groomed and degraded his victims.
Clifford is in a Category C jail that holds around 1,200 sex offenders.
His daughter Louise said: “Max denies these allegations.
“He has been recommended for Category D status and has an appeal lodged against his convictions.”
A Prison Service spokeswoman said: “We do not comment on individuals.”
FIRST YEWTREE SCALP
CLIFFORD was the first person convicted under the Met Police’s Operation Yewtree probe — launched in the wake of the scandal involving Jimmy Savile.
The ex-PR chief was moved to cushy Littlehey in June 2014. This year he returned to London’s tough Wandsworth jail while on trial for other historic sex offences.
Clifford was cleared and sent back to Littlehey.
He will not be freed until 2018 at the earliest.
