A 25-YEAR-OLD man has been placed on a high-tariff structured deferred sentence for the next 10 weeks.
Hugh Hutchison pleaded guilty to a vandalism offence at a property in Torwoodlee Road, Galashiels, on August 26 and also breaching his bail conditions by not staying at an address in Hawick where he had been bailed to.
Sentence was deferred at Jedburgh Sheriff Court until December 6 for the vandalism offence and he was admonished for the breach of bail due to the amount of time he had already spent in custody.
