A 22-year-old man this morning pleaded not guilty to having, last Sunday afternoon, defiled his 10-year-old brother, his 11-year-old cousin and a 13-year-old second cousin, all boys, when he exposed himself in a playground. He was also accused of indecent exposure and offending public morals.

Magistrate Joseph Apap Bologna remanded the man in custody after noting that the accused and the alleged victims all lived together and the accused has a drug problem and could not be trusted because of his past.

The court imposed a ban on the identity of the accused.
