Former world snooker champion Graeme Dott has been found guilty of child sexual abuse.
The 49-year-old denied two charges of lewd and libidinous behaviour towards a girl and a boy between 1993 and 2010.
During a trial, the High Court in Glasgow heard that Dott had exposed himself and inappropriately touched a primary school girl in the 1990s and attacked a young boy between 2006 and 2010.
Dott, who won the sport’s world championship at The Crucible in 2006, will be sentenced at a separate hearing in Edinburgh on 29 September.
Dott covered his face with his hands and shook his head while the verdict was delivered by jurors following a five-day trial.
He had previously called the allegations made against him “disgusting”.
During the trial, the court heard how he had “caressed” the girl’s bottom while giving her a piggyback and that, on another occasion, he had exposed himself to her.
Police previously contacted Dott about the allegations in 2001, but no charges were brought.
The woman gave a new statement to police in 2025.
The court was also told how Dott “rewarded” the boy with money, crisps and fizzy drinks after molesting him in the shower at a home in South Lanarkshire.
The boy, now a man in his 20s, also said he was abused in a car on a number of occasions.
