A 34-year-old man was granted $5,000 bail after he allegedly molested a 15-year-old girl.

Senior Magistrate Carolyn Vogt-Evan charged Benjamin Lightbourne with indecent assault.

Lightbourne allegedly inappropriately touched an underaged girl in New Providence on November 9.

After pleading not guilty, the defendant was informed that under the terms of his bail, he must sign in at the Fox Hill Police Station on the last Sunday of each month. He was also warned not to interfere with the witnesses or complainant.
