Aging entertainer Winnie The Pooh is in the headlines again as yet another scandal dogs him.
The bear, who was linked to a series of historical allegations uncovered by Operation Toytree, is accused in this latest controversy of grooming a young penguin.
“We have received a serious accusation that Mr The Pooh has taken pains to befriend this penguin,” said Chief Inspector Trumpton of Hundred Acre Woods Constabulary, “Further, that he took said penguin, without parental consent, into the woods. We have seen pictures that seem to confirm this. There are of course further details that I cannot divulge while an investigation is ongoing but I can say that Mr The Pooh is currently helping us with our enquiries.”
The 90 year old bear wasn’t available for comment but a spokesweasel for solicitors Robin,Crooks and Baggit gave a statement this afternoon:
“Mr The Pooh strongly denies these allegations. Just as when the so-called Roo allegations came out my client knew they were false because he’s innocent.”
Reporters asked about the Piglet case, which was settled out of court two years ago and is still subject to a gagging order, but the spokesweasel said that his client had never been found guilty of any wrongdoing.
A Disney spokesmouse said that they had no comment on their oldest star’s private life.
