Alfred Petrie, 60, is accused of approaching a woman at Seagate Bus Station on May 15 2018 and drawing her a picture of a woman in a state of undress.

On September 20 last year, Petrie allegedly sat down next to a 15-year-old girl on Whitehall Street before swearing, acting in an erratic manner and giving her similar drawings.

A third charge states that on April 22 this year on a train journey Petrie asked a woman personal questions and said he was going to draw a nude image.

He denies the charges and will be tried on April 1.
