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.

He was taken into custody ahead of the sentencing hearing next month.
