A man who was accused of sexually assaulting an eight-year-old boy at a campsite in the Highlands has died in prison.
John Bell, 44, was charged over the incident at the Loch Ness Bay campsite in Drumnadrochit. Police were told the boy was approached inside his tent between 00:20 and 01:00 on 31 July.
Mr Bell was remanded in custody at HMP Inverness after appearing in court in September, where he made no plea.
The BBC understands he died in his cell on Saturday. Police Scotland said there did not appear to be any suspicious circumstances and a report will be sent to the procurator fiscal.
