Matthew Torrington is due to stand trial at Winchester Crown Court on 15 October 2025.

The 36-year-old denies three charges of sexual assault and a single count of non-fatal intentional strangulation.

All four alleged offences relate to the same woman, and are said to have taken place in 2024.

Torrington, of Semington, was released on bail – with conditions not to contact the complainant – at a previous hearing at Salisbury Crown Court in April.
