The trial of a man accused of sexually assaulting an 11-year-old girl could start next week.
Richard Cunningham has been charged by Thames Valley Police with one count of assault on a girl under the age of 13 by touching. The 46-year-old, of Maxwell Road, Beaconsfield, denies the charge.
He appeared at Amersham Crown Court this morning for a brief hearing prior to the start of his trial. Judge Karen Holt told him it would take place within the two weeks beginning Monday, June 29.
In the meantime he has been released on conditional bail.
