He faces five charges of sexual assault of a girl under 13 – three involving touching and two of penetration using a finger. They relate to alleged offences in 2020 and 2021.

McCurdy is also on trial for five counts of indecent assault of a girl under 16 between 1988-90.

He denies the charges.

A police spokesman said last week: ‘We are following lines of enquiry to locate him.’
