A North Cork doctor has denied he sexually assaulted a 13-year-old patient by fondling her breasts for several minutes when she attended his surgery with a chest cold.

Kevin Mulcahy, aged 56, of Cregane, Lombardstown, Mallow, Co Cork, was arraigned at Cork Circuit Criminal Court yesterday on a single count of indecently assaulting the girl at his surgery on Strand St, Kanturk, Co Cork, on a date between September 1, 1989 and June 22, 1990.

The accused replied, “not guilty” to the charge.
