BAKER WANTS TO STRIP TO PROVE FRAUDSTER WRONG

Former CREAM star GINGER BAKER has vowed to strip off in a South African court to prove a woman who allegedly stole $47,400 (GBP30,000) from him is not an ex-lover.
The drummer, 69, has accused bank clerk Lindiwe Noko of defrauding him out of the cash, but she insists the money was given to her as a gift when she was his girlfriend.
Baker, who now lives in South Africa, has strenuously denied the romance claims - and insists he can disprove Noko by taking his clothes off to show the judge an intimate scar that only a lover would have knowledge of.
He says, "I've a scar that only a woman who had a thing with me would know. It's there and she doesn't know it's there.
"I'm quite prepared to strip. It may well come down to it."
The fraud case is due to go before a judge in January (09).
