A MINEHEAD man denied charges of sexual assault as he stood in the dock at Taunton Crown Court.
Kieran Bunce, 25 of Tregonwell Road, entered a not guilty plea on July 17 to the allegation of sexual assault on a girl over the age of 16.
Judge David Ticehurst said the trial is likely to last three days and will take place on January 8, 2018.
An earlier report published on the website which said Bunce denied charges of sexual assault on a girl under the age of 13 was incorrect.
We apologise to Mr Bunce for any distress this may have caused.
