THE trial of a convicted sex offender accused of abusing three Worcester boys continues after a jury was yesterday played a video interview showing one of the alleged victims in tears.

Simon Clancy, 45, denies 10 sexual offences against the three boys said to have taken place in Worcester in 1992 at his ongoing trial at Worcester Crown Court.

The oldest of the three alleged victims said one of the sexual assaults on the other boys took place after the child's dummy fell out. The youngest complainant was four at the time of the alleged sexual abuse, still in nappies and using a dummy, the jury has been told.
