Derby Crown Court heard on Monday, February 18, how John Maiden, 57, of Main Street, Scarcliffe, Chesterfield, had pleaded not guilty to charges during a trial in January but was found guilty by a jury of nine counts of indecent assault.

The charges involved indecencies against youngsters aged under 14 in Bolsover and they were committed during the early 1980s.
