A MAN accused of stalking one women whilst she was out horse riding and another at her place of work will face a trial in November.

Michael Jones, 64, of Llanwnnen, pleaded not guilty to two counts of stalking at Swansea Crown Court on June 17.

Jones was accused of stalking one woman between August 28 and October 1 in 2022, where he was alleged to have made unwanted communications with her, followed her whilst she was horse riding, and attempted to join the same hunt as her.

The defendant was also charged with stalking another woman between July 25, 2022, and January 17, 2023, by turning up at her place of work, calling her work to find out her whereabouts, and following her route to work.

The prosecution said that Jones’ alleged actions caused the women serious alarm or distress and had a substantial impact on their day-to-day life.

The case was adjourned, and Jones returned to the dock on July 2.

Judge Catherine Richards set a trial date of November 26, and the defendant was granted bail until that date.
