Dodgy? Until Proven Guilty.


"A MAN accused of a string of sex offences attended a prestigious council gala as a politician's guest. Alan Wilson, 64 - who is due to stand trial in April - was invited to the bash for the Royal Caledonian Curling Club by councillor pal John Holden. The event, held by Highland Council in Inverness, was hosted by Provost Jimmy Gray."

Mr Smith is a great believer in people being viewed as innocent until being proven guilty, but surely Highland Council should be showing a bit more concern for causing unnecessary pain and suffering to the alleged victims of Mr Wilson until he appears in court?

But then again Councillor Holden has previous form as being a bit dodgy.
