A man's appeared in court charged with just under a dozen crimes against children.
The man can't be named after laws were brought in by Tynwald preventing alleged sex offenders being identified.
He hasn't yet entered pleas to one count each of indecent assault and wilful mistreatment, two each of gross indecency and assault, and five of inciting or procuring a child to commit gross indecency.
He's also charged with three counts of gross indecency against an adult - all of the offences are said to have happened between 1989 and 1998.
The case was adjourned until December 3 and he was bailed until that date.
