A man has denied sexually assaulting a woman at a Kent train station.

Amari Ward, 31, is accused of groping a woman's leg in a vehicle in Sittingbourne Train Station car park without her consent.

He reportedly caught a train to London after the alleged incident and was arrested the next day.

Mr Ward appeared at Maidstone Crown Court on Thursday, where he pleaded not guilty to one count of sexual assault. He will go on trial before a jury in February next year.
