The Highland home where women were 'tortured' in a dungeon
A man who abused vulnerable women in an underground chamber at his Highland home has been given the first worldwide travel ban to be imposed by a Scottish court.
Kevin Booth, who is in his 60s, carried out "punishment beatings" using whips, canes and riding crops at his Lochdhu Lodge in Altnabreac, a small community in Caithness.
A court ruling said he had carried out "a systematic course of conduct of acts of human trafficking and exploitation" over many years.
The travel ban, which was approved after Police Scotland raised a civil action, prevents Booth from travelling outside the UK for the next five years.
