A MAN who last week stripped naked and refused to come out of his cell was again a no-show at court.
Mark Scott, 49, was due before Swindon Magistrates’ Court to answer a charge he harassed a bus driver in Salisbury on February 5.
JPs tried to take pleas from the man last Thursday but couldn’t as the South African national had stripped off his clothes, was performing a sex act upon himself and refusing to engage with his solicitor.
They recorded a not guilty plea for the homeless man. He was due back before the courts on Wednesday but refused to get on the prison bus.
Magistrates remanded Scott in custody in his absence. A trial has been fixed for March 26.
