A former Liberal MP on the Northern beaches accused of child rape or front of trial in the state's Supreme Court. Rory Aiman has pleaded not guilty to two charges after being cleared of eight others in March. Well, this long legal battle facing former MP Rory Aiman is set to be dragged out even further. The confirmation this morning that Crown prosecutors are pursuing a second trial over allegations he sexually assaulted a teenage boy. This morning Aiman was arraigned here in the Supreme Court on one count of sexual intercourse and another of committing an act of indecency upon a 13-year-old. He's pleaded not guilty to both. Mr Aiman, how do you feel about facing a second trial? It was only in March that the former New South Wales Liberal MP was cleared by a jury of eight other charges surrounding the incident alleged to have occurred back in 2017, but the

jury failed to reach a decision on the remaining two charges. Do you think the jury got it right? Those will now go to a second trial set to take place here in November.
