Former Children's Home Deputy Super Set To Stand Trial On Historic Sex Charges

The former deputy superintendent of a children's home will stand trial next year, accused of the abuse of a young boy four decades ago.

Roger Laing, 68, of Lytton Avenue, Letchworth Garden City worked at the home, located in Bromley, south-east London in the 1970's.

Yesterday a date was set for him to return on bail to Croydon Crown Court for trial on June 20.

Laing has pleaded not guilty to six counts of indecently assaulting the boy on various dates between July 16, 1974 and September 8, 1978.

He has also pleaded not guilty to a single count of buggery between July 16, 1974 and September 27, 1975.
