Ashanti-Jade Walton, appearing for the defendant, said that Reading denied having entered the address at all.
“He popped his head through the door shouting [the complainant’s] name,” she said.
“At no point was he inside.”
Judge Huw Rees set a trial date of January 22, and Reading was remanded in to custody until that date.
