British comedian Hardeep Singh Kohli is on trial at Glasgow Sheriff Court accused of six sex-related charges against three women.
Kohli faces a total of six charges against three different women between 2007 and 2016.
The 56-year-old, who was a contestant on Celebrity Big Brother, denies the charges.
Locations include the BBC studios at Pacific Quay, Glasgow, where he allegedly indecently assaulted a woman by squeezing her bottom and trying to hug her between April 2007 and September 2008.
It is also alleged he committed a breach of the peace in the woman’s presence in an unknown bar and restaurant in Glasgow between the same dates.
Came across this article while looking at other stories in the Herald today.
Now look at the headline.
This guy was born in London, moved to Glasgow with the rest of his family as a young child.
His brother, also born in London, moved to Glasgow as a child, is described by the Herald as a “Glasgow comedian”.
You see the same things by searching their names on Google.
One is described as “British presenter” on google, the other “Scottish actor and comedian”.
Can’t say I’m impressed by the Herald acting in this way, making a point of nationalities of accused persons, given the current climate in the media.

“Comedian” is doing a lot of heavy lifting.
