Wigan man locked up for bail breaches

Kyle Furlong, 29, of Rivington Drive, Bickershaw, had been bailed after police charged with the sexual touching of a 14-year-old on April 8, but Wigan magistrates heard that he then broke the terms of the bail by failing to spend the night at a designated address in Abram on April 16 and 28.

As a result the bench has now ordered that he be remanded in custody until he makes his first appearance before a Bolton Crown Court judge on May 10.
