Former world snooker champion Graeme Dott accused of sexually abusing children

Former world snooker champion Graeme Dott has been accused of sexually abusing children.

The 47-year-old is facing charges of historic sex abuse against a boy and a girl.

Court papers allege he abused the girl in Glasgow between 1993 and 1996, beginning when she was around 10.

He is said to have told her to remove her clothing, exposed his genitals to her and sexually assaulted her.

He faces a second charge of sexually abusing a boy between 2006 and 2010, in locations in Lanarkshire, from when the child was aged around seven.
