A basis of plea was entered by Shaw’s solicitor Mark Hudson, the content of which was not accepted by the Crown Prosecution Service.

Shaw was committed for sentencing at Lincoln Crown Court on a date to be fixed.

It will be decided there whether or not the basis of plea will be made the subject to a Newton hearing.
