Maj Gen James Roddis admitted indecent behaviour after drunkenly touching and kissing woman against her will

A major general who drunkenly touched and kissed a woman in a karaoke bar after she indicated she wanted him to stop has been dismissed from the army and given a six-month suspended prison sentence by a court martial board for his indecent behaviour.

Maj Gen James Roddis, 53, was leading a military delegation overseas when he made his unwanted advances, with the early part of the incident captured on camera with a mobile phone.
