Men face trial on 73 sex charges
Two men have been returned for trial to Derry's Crown Court charged with more than 70 sex offences.
The men, who cannot be named to protect the identities of their alleged victims, face 73 charges including rape, buggery and indecent assault between October 8, 1987 and December 31, 1996.
During a preliminary enquiry, the men were asked if they wished to say anything in relation to the charges. Both men said 'not at this time.' Defence lawyers for the men conceded there was a prima facie case to answer. Both men were released on continuing bail and ordered not to contact the alleged victims.
They will be arraigned at the Crown Court at a later date.
