A man who has no penis has admitted assaulting two women who thought they were having sex with him.

Carlos Delacruz, 35, pretended to have sex with the women using an unknown instrument while he was in a relationship with them.

Both his victims complained of "extreme pain" during intercourse with Delacruz and were forced to stop and suffered from thrush afterwards.

Delacruz, from Banknock, near Falkirk, refused to allow the women to see him naked and always performed in bed with the lights out.

Edinburgh Sheriff Court was told both women, who cannot be named due to legal reasons, were left shocked after they subsequently discovered their lover did not have a penis and had been using an unknown object to enter them.
