The Irish music mogul has vehemently denied groping a 24 year old in a restroom in Krystle nightclub in Dublin, Ireland following a Westlife concert at the city's O2 venue earlier that night and last week (end26Jun11) he flew back to his native country to voluntarily answer cops' questions.
Since news of the alleged incident emerged, celebrities including Sir Elton John, Simon Cowell and Sharon Osbourne have offered messages of support to Walsh, and now the stars of Westlife have spoken out in their manager's defence.
Singer Kian Egan insists the pop stars are even willing to speak to investigating officers, telling the Daily Mirror, "We are ready to speak to police to clear Louis' name. We are with him 100 per cent and will fully co-operate with the inquiry, but he is innocent."
While Egan's bandmate Shane Filan, who was with Walsh at the nightclub, is also convinced of his innocence, telling the Sunday Mirror: "I was with Louis on the night this supposedly happened and I'm 100 per cent that he is innocent. I have no doubt about Louis' �character. This is not the man I've known for 15 years. I didn't see anything untoward. I've never seen him act �inappropriately to anyone.
"Louis, me, my wife and the (Westlife) boys were at a table minding our own business. This guy came up and said he was going to be in a dance TV show. Louis wasn't talking to the guy any more than the rest of us. I didn't see him go off with this guy. Not to the toilets or anywhere else."
