A SCHOOLBOY has been banned from using the internet until he stands trial accused of trying to incite riots on Facebook.
The 14-year-old boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, appeared on petition yesterday at Dundee Sheriff Court. He was arrested along with Shawn Divin, 16, and Jordan McGinley, 18, last week.
Divin and McGinley appeared last week and were remanded in custody. The schoolboy appeared on a petition alleging that along with Divin and McGinley he encouraged others to riot in Dundee on Wednesday 17 August.
Prosecutors say the trio acted in a disorderly manner by creating the page between 9 and 10 August. The 14-year-old was released on bail with the condition that he does not access the internet by any means.
