A man accused of kissing a six-year-old boy on the mouth has been refused bail

Police allege that Shervin Colebrook, 23, committed the indecent act around 9pm on July 10.

The child was attending a party with his mother when Colebrook allegedly grabbed him and kissed him against his will.

Colebrook did not enter a plea to the indecent assault charge when he appeared before Deputy Chief Magistrate Andrew Forbes.

Forbes remanded Colebrook to prison. He returns to court on October 28.
