A west Suffolk man has denied sending sexually explicit images of himself to a child.

The case of William Buckley was brought before Ipswich Crown Court on Friday.

The court heard that Buckley, 39 and from Beck Row, near Bury St Edmunds, is facing charges of causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity, engaging in sexual communication with a child, and sending a photograph or film of his genitals with the intent of causing alarm, distress or humiliation.

Buckley has denied all three offences.

The trial is expected to commence on August 27.
