A 12-year-old boy is facing trial in the crown court for two counts of sexual assault against another boy.
The youth, from Cwmbran, who cannot be named, denied one count of sexual activity against the boy who is aged under 13, between September 1, 2008 and 31 July, 2009, at Newport Crown Court yesterday.
He also pleaded not guilty to a second offence of causing the same boy to engage in sexual activity between September 1 and September 30, 2009.
The case was adjourned for trial on June 14 and the boy was released on bail.
