These are the allegations made by Carolyn Marks and Maria Botteril against Jonathan Nunn
Carolyn met Mr Nunn in 2005 and the couple had twins a year later. Maria was in a relationship with Mr Nunn for 10 years from 1990
Jonathan Nunn has now resigned as council leader
Before his resignation he had told the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½, 'I strenuously deny these allegations and the police are actively investigating a sustained campaign of harassment against me. Trial by media has been relentless and exhausting. I have always been open and honest about the fact that 20 years ago I received a conviction for assault and a community order, which is being referred to. Domestic abuse is never acceptable and I profoundly regret this. I have also spoken publicly about this before and it has also been a matter of public record for many years, since before I was elected as a borough and now a unitary councillor by members of the public and became council leader. In the many years that have since passed I have worked hard to make up for the past by trying to contribute something positive. Central to this has been working hard as a councillor to put as much as I can back into my local community'
