A man has pleaded not guilty to eight counts of sexual assault against two young girls in the 1970s.
Peter Eden, 59, of Roebuck Road, Chessington, faces four counts of sexual assault, including rape and oral rape, against a seven-year-old girl.
The other four, including two counts of oral rape, are against a six-year-old girl.
The assaults allegedly took place in the SW19 area between May 26, 1971, and February 15, 1973, when Mr Eden was aged between 15 and 17.
Mr Eden denied all the charges against him at Kingston Crown Court today, Wednesday, June 1. His trial will begin at the same court on October 17.
