DUNDEE MAN ON SEX OFFENDERS REGISTER AFTER PUB ASSAULTS
Andrew Swan is now on the sex offenders’ register after the sex assaults left his victims "really scared" and in "total shock".Swan, aged 51, previously pleaded guilty at Dundee Sheriff Court to slapping one woman on the buttock.
During the same incident at the Bush Bar on May 18, he also slapped another woman on both buttocks.
The Crown Office did not provide an agreed narrative of the facts in Swan’s case, which is normally read aloud in the court.
Sheriff Allan Findlay placed Swan on supervision and the sex offenders’ register for 12 months and ordered him to pay each of the women £500 in compensation.
These orders were made as an alternative to custody.
The victim impact statements indicated that one of the women was "really scared" and in "total shock".
Swan, of Thirlestane Place, was described by his solicitor as struggling with "emotional regulation" on top of alcohol difficulties.
Swan has a prior conviction for a sexually aggravated breach of the peace.
