Villagers in shock as married vicar is arrested for 'voyeurism'
A married vicar has been suspended from his job after he was arrested on suspicion of voyeurism.
- Rev Richard Lee suspended from post at two churches after arrest
- Parishioners shocked at news of police probe into 'popular' figure
The Rev Richard Lee, 48, has been on police bail since the summer while officers investigate the case.
Police yesterday refused to reveal details of the claims against him.
Mr Lee is the Church of England vicar for two Somerset village churches near Weston-super-Mare, St Augustine’s in Locking and St Mary’s in Hutton, where his 47-year-old wife, the Rev Anne Lee, also works.
He is also the co-ordinator of a local music group called WWJD.
The couple – who met while studying to be vicars and have two children – moved from their previous parish in Kent five years ago.
Yesterday members of his previous congregation expressed shock at his arrest.
A female parishioner at All Saints Church in Hempstead, Kent, said: ‘Richard was really popular here. He got on with everyone.
'I’m pretty shocked to hear [of his arrest].’
Last night it was not clear whether or not Mrs Lee is still officiating at services while her husband is on police bail.
