A young man has pleaded not guilty to having sex with a 13-year-old girl last year.

The man took his plea at the Magistrate’s Court yesterday morning.

He was charged with two counts of unlawful intercourse with an underage girl.

The allegations are alleged to have occurred in the months of June and August last year.

The case will appear again for a pre-trial conference Monday next week.
