A man who is accused of assaulting a woman and soliciting for prostitution is to face trial by judge and jury.

Nicole-Iulica Moldoveanu pleaded not guilty to the charge when he appeared before a judge at Swindon Crown Court.

The 29-year-old, of County Road, pleaded not guilty to actual bodily harm and soliciting on Sunday February 4.

Judge Jason Taylor QC adjourned the case to a trial date to be fixed and remanded him in custody until then.
