Montagu’s youngest son, Robert, told the Guardian he had no idea a prosecution against his father had been dropped.
He wrote in his autobiography last year of the repeated sexual abuse against him by his father when he was between the ages of seven and 11. He said he knows 10 people who were abused by his father as children but he believed there may be up to 20.
“It doesn’t surprise me altogether but I didn’t realise that it went on so late into his life,” he said. “I had no idea he was ever visited by the police at home or charged. My father was a loner, I don’t think he was part of any Westminster paedophile ring, but he was right there at the time.
“He had a house in Great College Street, near the House of Commons, and overlooking the gardens of Westminster School, he was right in the middle of it all.”

“Nothing must be covered up any more. I hope people continue to talk and write about all this. My father may come up in the inquiry, I am not sure. What is vital is the inquiry goes ahead, and is not shelved by the Tory government.”
