News / Man denies Clickimin indecency charge
A BANGLADESHI man has denied a charge of public indecency in a Lerwick steam room.
Forty year old Mohamed Nurul Haque appeared from custody at Lerwick Sheriff Court on Thursday accused of exposing himself and masturbating in the steam room at the popular Clickimin Leisure Complex on Tuesday.
He pled not guilty after procurator fiscal Duncan Mackenzie refused to reduce the charge to one of just exposing himself.
The court heard that Mr Haque moved to Lerwick from Dorset recently, and now lives at 26a Commercial Road.
Honorary sheriff Eric Peterson released him on bail on condition that he does not attempt to enter the leisure complex before his trial on 27 July.
