A MAN has denied sexually assaulting his teenage step-daughter.
The man – who we have chosen not to name in order to protect the identity of the complainant – appeared at Swansea Crown Court charged with four offences of sexual activity with a child family member.
Two of the charges related to allegations that the man intentionally touched the girl – who was aged between 16 and 17 at the time – without her consent between January and June 2021.
It was alleged in the remaining charges that the man intentionally touched the girl and penetrated her vagina on June 5, 2021.
