A serving Police Scotland officer is accused of sexually assaulting seven women at a hotel. David Jones, 34, allegedly committed the crimes at Glasgow city centre's Radisson Blu on March 31, 2023.

Court papers state Jones touched three women on the bottom over their clothing. It is stated that he went on to place his hands on the waist of another woman and pulled her towards him.

Jones is said to have placed his hands on the waist of a fifth woman, pulled her towards him, placed his hand on her shoulder and groped her breast over her clothing.

It is alleged Jones placed his hand on the neck of a sixth woman and repeatedly groped her breasts over her clothes.

A final woman is said to have had Jones put his arm around her neck. He is also stated to have rubbed his clothed buttocks on her leg and groped her.

Jones denies the seven charges at Glasgow Sheriff Court. A trial has been fixed for August.
