A man pleaded not guilty to unlawful carnal knowledge of a teenage girl.

The 30-year-old defendant, who cannot be named for legal reasons, chose to have his case tried in Magistrates’ Court and yesterday denied the offence, which allegedly occurred between September 2018 and March 2019.

Magistrate Tyrone Chin adjourned the case to November 21 for mention and released the defendant on $5,000 bail until that time.
