A 48-YEAR-OLD man is due to appear in court tomorrow charged with indecently assaulting a girl.
Colin Leslie Martin, of Cecil Road, Gravesend, is charged with committing eight counts of indecent assault and four of gross indecency between January 1998 and January 2001.
The girl, who was aged 11 when the alleged abuse began, cannot be identified for legal reasons.
Martin has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
When he appeared at Dartford Magistrates' Court on November 24, he spoke only to confirm his name, age and address.
He was granted conditional bail.
When Martin appears before magistrates tomorrow, he is expected to be committed for trial at Maidstone Crown Court.
