Leslie voluntarily attended a police interview in March 2018 at the end of which he said 'I have not attacked or assaulted anyone ever', the jury was told.
Leslie, from Edinburgh and whose full name is John Leslie Stott, sat quietly in the dock wearing a smart mid-grey suit as the case against him was outlined.
The trial opened on Monday, but the jury was discharged in the afternoon and Judge Deborah Taylor said the case would start afresh on Tuesday.
She told the jury: 'A juror is unable to carry on so what I am going to do is, since we are in the early stages (of this case), is to discharge this jury and swear in another.'
