A PLEA and trial preparation hearing has been scheduled for a man accused of assaulting a woman in Oxford.

The 26-year-old is accused of assaulting a woman with his fingers on August 22, 2020.
Sexon was not asked to enter a plea and the case has been sent to Oxford Crown Court as it is an indictable offence only – meaning it can only be dealt with at the higher court.
The defendant will now be due at Oxford Crown on July 5 at 10.30am for a plea and trial preparation hearing.
