A BRITON on a visit here was charged on Friday with outraging
the modesty of a 30-year-old woman in a Clarke Quay club.
Austin Charles Arnold Cowburn, 34, is alleged to have grabbed
her buttock in the China One pub at 4am on April 3 2011.
A pre-trial conference will be held on Wednesday (Aug 3) and
bail was set at $8,000.
Cowburn, a recruitment executive back home, is presently putting
up at a backpacker hostel in Chinatown. His passport is with the
police.
