A 60-year-old man was charged in the Magistrate's Court on Friday with indecent assault.

Police alleged that Vernal Munnings kissed a 15-year-old girl on her lips before telling her he liked her on April 19.

He denied the allegation during his hearing before Chief Magistrate Ferguson-Pratt; however, before the magistrate could consider the issue of bail, the prosecution requested an adjournment to review the antecedents of the accused.

As a result, the case was adjourned to April 26 for a bail hearing.

Munnings was remanded in custody in the interim.
