Ex-Glasgow teacher accused of performing sex act in front of little boy at city primary school

A former school teacher will stand trial accused of performing a sex act in front of a boy.

Gerald King, 69, allegedly used lewd, indecent and libidinous practices towards the boy aged between seven and 11 at a primary school in the north of Glasgow.

Court papers state that the offence took place on an occasion between August 1991 and June 1995.

It is alleged that King was a school teacher and a football coach at the time.

The charge claims King invited the boy into a room where he was changing where he then performed the sex act.

King pled not guilty today at Glasgow Sheriff Court to the single charge.

A trial was fixed for December by Sheriff John McCormick.

King, of the city's Springburn, had his bail continued meantime.
