Two men accused of grooming teenage girls for sex are to stand trial.

Arjun Singh, 50, and Naresh Kumar, 48, face the allegation which spans between January 2011 and March 2020.

It is said the pair - along with unknown individuals - conspired to "groom and engage in unlawful sexual activity" with five named girls and other females.

Prosecutors claim they got the youngsters to bring friends to a flat, bought them food, cigarettes and alcohol as well as supplied them with money and drugs.

A number of locations in Hamilton, South Lanarkshire, feature on the indictment.

Singh and Kumar face other allegations including separate charges of rape.

The case called for a hearing at the High Court in Glasgow today.

The pair deny the accusations and judge Lord Beckett set a trial due to start in June next year.
