The Director of Public Prosecutions directed summary disposal at the District Court level. The court has yet to hear an outline of the facts to consider whether it will accept jurisdiction or send the case to a higher court.
No evidence was provided regarding the allegations.
The accused, who did not address the court and has yet to enter a plea, was ordered to appear again on September 8th next.
The offence, on conviction in the District Court, carries a maximum 12-month sentence, but ten years' imprisonment if the case proceeds on indictment to the Circuit Court.

Female teacher sent underwear pictures to boy, 15
A teacher sent pictures of herself in her underwear to a 15-year-old boy, a tribunal heard. Georgia Lowe, now 27, was caught when the 'inappropriate' notes were found by the boy's mother and has now been banned from the profession for life. Her relationship with him began with late-night email sessions using emojis and nicknames, months after she started in the role, a Teaching Regulation Agency (TRA) panel heard. When the relationship came to light, Lowe was suspended by the school, but she contacted the pupil again, sending him sexual images of herself, the TRA panel was told. After resigning, the teacher was found guilty of engaging in sexual communication with a child and was handed a 14-month suspended jail term, the panel heard. Lowe began working as a trainee teacher at Kingsmead School in Hednesford, Staffordshire, in July 2021. In September that year, when she was 'responsible' for the then 15-year-old, she began emailing him as late as 10pm, the panel was told. Her messages included heart symbol emojis, would often end with a kiss, and used nicknames, the panel heard. Lowe wrote to the pupil using phrases like 'make me proud', 'try not to miss me too much' and 'you've already made my day', the TRA was told. In October 2021, the boy's mother found notes she believed were from Lowe and reported her concerns to the school. An investigation was launched, and Lowe was suspended, the panel heard. Despite having 'a warning shot across her bows', the teacher contacted the boy again, and sent him intimate photos, the TRA was told. Lowe resigned in November 2021 and was charged by the police. She initially denied the charge before changing her plea to guilty on the day of trial, the panel heard. Lowe was sentenced to 14 months' jail, suspended for 18 months, and was put on the sex offender register for 10 years. 'Gross breach of trust' In his sentencing remarks, the judge said Lowe committed a 'gross breach of trust' and 'used the environment in which you were working with (the pupil) to pursue what was evidently your sexual interest in him'. 'You moved on to the passing of inappropriate notes to him, and ultimately, by the end of the period that we are concerned with, matters escalated to private digital communications between you and him, including you sending him images of yourself in your underwear,' the judge said. 'The concerning aspect of your case is that after matters came to light, by his mother having found out what was going on, you were spoken to, and yet you still had another face-to-face meeting with him at school, and ultimately, when the investigation was launched and you were suspended from work, you contacted him again, and that included the sending of the images of yourself to him. 'That was a warning shot across your bows, the investigation at school, and the suspension, but you did not bring your pursuit of him to an end at that point in time.' On behalf of the Secretary of State, decision-maker Marc Cavey said Lowe's behaviour was 'incompatible with working as a teacher'.

TikTok migrant who taunted Brits filmed sick ‘how to kill your wife' rant for followers weeks before arriving in UK
THE TikTok migrant who taunted Brits from his hotel room was reported to police for telling men how to kill their estranged wives in a vile video filmed weeks before he crossed to the UK. Parwiz Hanifyar, inset, who we can reveal as the man behind the Alexandra420 account, even told 70,000 followers how to cover up their crimes in a video filmed in Germany. 6 6 6 The Afghan, in his early 20s, even urges them to sink booze before attacking them to get a softer sentence. The misogynist's tirade was streamed in Germany before he paid smuggling gangs to get him across the Channel last Saturday. Hanifyar is now in a taxpayer-funded hotel near Heathrow. Last night he faced calls to be deported after his TikTok video was reported to UK authorities. Hanifyar, who posted as Alexandra420 before his account was banned, told his 70,000 followers last month: 'A brave man does not allow his wife to marry another man, even have children and live with someone else.' He tells viewers to buy a household item, which The Sun is not naming, to use as a weapon. He then adds: 'Before I kill her, I drink a bottle of alcohol. "Don't get too much drunk. "Kill her immediately. 'When the police comes, they say, he was drunk. Illegal migrant LIVE STREAMS step by step channel crossing & boasts 'my dream was to come here' from 4 star asylum hotel "How many years of prison you will get? Seven years. "You will have academic courses in prison. 'After seven years, you have learned something, and you are only 30 and sexually very strong. 'Marry a new woman. You must do this technique.' Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp MP said last night: 'These quotes are sickening. HIS SICK RANT "I will let her sleep first. Before I kill her, I drink a bottle of alcohol. I have never drunk alcohol in my life, but I teach you the technique to get less punishment. Just drink a bottle of it. Don't get too much drunk. Kill her immediately. When the police comes, they say, he was drunk. How many years or prison you will get? 7 years. During 7 years you will have academic courses in prison. After seven years you have learned something and you are only 30 years old and sexually very strong. Marry a new woman. You must do this technique." "He is now in the UK and clearly a danger to women. "He should be arrested and immediately deported.' Hanifyar lived in Berlin for up to three years before he was moved to France, then here. TikTok influencer Lemar was among residents who reported Hanifyar to German authorities last month. Lemar said: 'This man has been very cruel to Afghan women in Germany. 'He said horrific things on his streams. "I believed he should have been arrested in Germany, but instead he was able to leave.' Earlier this week we told how Hanifyar held a live Q&A from his room at the Crowne Plaza. He urged others to pay smugglers to reach the 'soft-touch' UK, adding: 'This is the best place. Tell your friends to come.' The Home Office said it does not comment on individual cases. 6 6 6

JK Rowling blasts Sturgeon memoirs as a 'shameless denial of reality and hard facts' in scathing review
They have long been locked in a bitter war of words over the gender debate. Now author JK Rowling has penned a scathing review of Nicola Sturgeon 's hotly anticipated memoirs on the day it was officially launched. The Harry Potter author, who famously wore a t-shirt labelling the former first minister a 'destroyer of women's rights', posted the expletive-riddled assessment of 'Frankly' on her website last night. Ms Rowling tore into the former First Minister's 'stubborn' attachment to her controversial gender reform legislation, her inability to face up to her failures in office and 'Trumpian' accounts of political events. The women's right campaigner wrote: 'She remains stubbornly wedded to her belief that it is possible to let some men into women's spaces on the men's say so, without letting any man who fancies it come inside. 'She denies there are any risks to a policy of gender self-identification. She can't imagine any male predator capitalising on such policies, in spite of the fact that it has, demonstrably, happened many times. 'She is flat out Trumpian in her shameless denial of reality and hard facts.' 'While Sturgeon is focused on making sure no hurty sexist words penetrate hers, she's entirely dismissive of the harms done in actual physical spaces, where she expected nurse Sandie Peggie to deal with a heavy menstrual flood in front of a cosplaying man, and vulnerable female prisoners to accept being incarcerated with trans-identified male sex offenders. 'The First Minister, with her police protection, her carefully monitored official residence and her chauffeured car just couldn't see what these bigots were making a fuss about.' The best-selling author said it was only when the double rapist Isla Bryson burst into the news that the FM was lost of words. Ms Rowling said: 'The First Minister, whose composure and articulacy under fire had, for years, been her most potent political asset, made herself look – and forgive me for employing a PR term here – a complete f******. 'Of course, the blame for her looking like a complete f****** lies with others. Nobody had warned her about Bryson, you see.' 'If you're prepared to accept the foundational falsehood that some men are women, you'll inevitably find yourself panicking like a pheasant caught in headlights one day.' Ms Rowling also addressed claims Sturgeon made in her book about the vile abuse the politician had received. The best-selling author said: 'Eleven years ago, when she and I found ourselves on opposite sides of a different public debate, I didn't hold her accountable for all the threats I received from nationalists, nor for the porn her supporters circulated, with my face pasted onto a naked actress's body. 'As the gender wars have raged, I have not accused her of emboldening the kind of 'activist' whose threats against me have twice necessitated police action.' 'Notwithstanding all the ruminating on sexism and misogyny Sturgeon does in Frankly, always as it affects her personally, she is unshakeable in her belief that if men put on dresses and call themselves women they can only be doing so with innocent motives. 'Sturgeon hasn't been remotely humbled by the Supreme Court ruling that proved her government was forcing a misinterpretation of the UK-wide Equality Act on Scotland, one that robbed women of many single sex spaces and of their very existence as a definable class with rights protected in law.' And Ms Rowling, who reveals that her doctor husband once ran a methadone clinic for drug addicts, hit out at what the ex FM fails to even mention in the memoir. Ms Rowling said: 'The mysteriously vanished government WhatsApp messages from the pandemic, the tanking educational outcomes, the CalMac Ferry disaster, the disappearance of a half a million pounds of her own supporters' money that was supposedly ringfenced for a new independence referendum: you'll search in vain for candid accounts of these in Frankly; indeed, most aren't mentioned at all. 'Perhaps the most disgraceful omission – and I'll admit to a personal interest here, because I'm married to a doctor who used to run a methadone clinic, so saw the national scandal up close – is the fact that Scotland continues to lead the whole of Europe in drug deaths.' And she compares the MSP to Bella Swan in the Twilight books by Stephenie Meyer. Ms Rowling wrote: 'The heroine of Twilight, a shy, awkward, bookish girl, moves to a small, rainswept town called Forks to live with her single father. 'In doing so, she unknowingly takes her first step towards a staggeringly unlikely future nobody could have predicted. 'The heroine of Frankly is also a shy, awkward, bookish girl who lives in a small, rainswept town. 'About to turn seventeen, she approaches a bungalow in Dreghorn, knocks on the door of the SNP candidate for her constituency, and asks if she can help with canvassing.' 'Nicola Sturgeon, unlike the eventually undead Bella Swan, isn't a Good Vampire at all. She's caused real, lasting harm by presiding over and encouraging a culture in which women have been silenced, shamed, persecuted and placed in situations that are degrading and unsafe, all for not subscribing to her own luxury beliefs.'
