A woman giving evidence tells a court that she “struggled” to speak about alleged sexual abuse committed when she was a schoolgirl by former world snooker champion Graeme Dott. The testimony is part of the court process addressing the allegations against Dott.

The two reports describe the same point from the woman’s testimony: difficulty discussing the events and explaining them to others. Both outlets frame the moment as one of the factors behind why she did not come forward immediately, highlighting the challenges of giving evidence in an abuse case. Beyond this, the accounts provided do not add differing details on the broader proceedings, dates, or legal arguments.

Overall, the coverage is focused on the woman’s statement in court about her inability to talk about what happened, with both sources presenting this as central to her evidence.
