A man and woman have appeared in court accused of assaulting two girls in Dundee.
Prosecutors allege Ilia Belov, 22, approached and followed four girls, who were aged between 12 and 14, and made sexual remarks to them before seizing one of the girls and pushing her to the ground.
His co-accused Nadjedzha Belova, 20, is accused of repeatedly seizing and pulling another of the girls by the hair, dragging her to the ground, and punching her on the head to her injury.
The case was continued without plea to a case management hearing on 6 March at Dundee Sheriff Court.
The offences are alleged to have taken place in St Ann Lane, Lochee last August.
