A 68-YEAR-OLD man now living in France has been fined £3,000 and ordered to pay his teenage victim £10,000 compensation after he admitted sexual offences during holidays in Ardnamurchan.
Rupert James Nevill Valpy appeared before Sheriff William Taylor QC on Tuesday at Fort William for sentencing.
He had previously admitted lewd and libidinous practices towards a teenage girl on various occasions between February 22, 2003, and February 22, 2006. The sheriff said he had read the report on Valpy, including ‘a very poignant victim statement’.
