A vulnerable Newtown man accused of stalking women has been found not guilty following a crown court trial.

Martin Scott, aged 30, of Ffordd Croesawdy, had denied two counts of stalking between September 27, 2022, and September 5 2023.

No evidence was offered by the prosecution for six breaches of a sexual harm prevention order which allegedly happened between March 31 and September 2 last year.

He was acquitted following a trial at Caernarfon Crown Court which ended last week.

Mr Scott was released from custody following the trial after being on remand in prison since his arrest in September.
