A 20-year-old man has been accused of sexually assaulting two teenage girls at Selkirk Sheriff Court.
Josh Nordon faces a total of six charges of sexual assault involving the 13- and 14-year-old girls at various locations in Galashiels and Hawick between April 1 and August 14.
He is also accused of making threats to harm himself if a 13-year-old girl did not send him an image of her private parts while he sent her an image of his naked genitals.
Nordon of Hamilton Road, Hawick, has pleaded not guilty to all seven offences and will stand trial at Selkirk Sheriff Court on November 19.
He was released on bail with special conditions not to contact the two girls, not to to enter two named streets in Galashiels and not to have unsupervised contact with any person under 16 years of age.
