A COUPLE accused of conspiring to pervert the course of justice have had their bail applications refused.

Kevin and Janet Sutcliffe, aged 60 and 61, of Hill Crest Road, Denholme, appeared at Bradford Crown Court for the hearing.

The trio have also been charged with possession of extreme pornography, with James Sutcliffe accused of an offence of voyeurism.

He will stand trial on July 2.
