An 86-year-old Isle of Wight man, who is accused of sexually touching a teenage boy, has been bailed to appear before the Crown Court next month.
Arthur Geoffrey Page, of Queens Road in Cowes, has been charged with engaging in penetrative sexual activity with a boy and engaging in non-penetrative sexual activity with a boy.
The Isle of Wight Magistrates Court heard today (Friday) that the pensioner is accused of performing a sex act, as well as sexual touching, in October 2020.
The matter has been deemed so serious it has been adjourned to the Isle of Wight Crown Court on 7th June.
Mr Page has been granted bail until that time.
