A PENSIONER found guilty of using lewd, libidinous and indecent practices towards two young girls at a house in the Borders has been placed on the Sex Offenders Register at Jedburgh Sheriff Court.

Randolph Hudson was also put on probation for one year and given a night time curfew at his home in Leicester between the hours of 7pm and 7am for the next 12 months.

The 67-year-old had denied the historic offences at the property near Clovenfords 20 years ago but was found guilty after a trial.

He touched an 11-year-old girl's breasts over her clothing while he exposed himself to the other girl when she was aged between six and eight and touched her private parts.
