Snooker champion Graeme Dott guilty of child sex abuse

Former world snooker champion Graeme Dott has been found guilty of child sexual abuse. The 49-year-old denied two charges of lewd and libidinous behaviour towards a girl and a boy between 1993 and 2010. During a trial, the High Court in Glasgow heard that Dott had exposed himself and inappropriately touched a primary school girl in the 1990s and attacked a young boy between 2006 and 2010. Lord Harrower told Dott, who won the sport's world championship at The Crucible in 2006, will be sentenced at a separate hearing in Edinburgh on 29 September. Dott covered his face with his hands and shook his head while the verdict was delivered by jurors following a five-day trial.
