Sexual assault          13/10/11

A Lewis man who sexually assaulted a female has sentenced to three years social work supervision under a community payback order at Stornoway Sheriff Court yesterday (wed).

Murdanie Mackinnon of 69 Parkend, Stornoway, has also been placed on the sex offenders register.

The 61-year-old previously admitted the sexual assault.

The court had heard that Mackinnon engaged her in conversation and made advances towards her.

She went to walk away when he tried to put his arm around her shoulders but then he touched her breast.

Lawyer Kevin Macpherson said Mackinnon was “very ashamed” of his stupid behaviour.
