A FORMER Anglican priest has been charged with multiple counts of indecent assault and gross indecency against two young girls.

Timothy Cohen, 63 has been charged with multiple counts of indecent assault and gross indecency in regional Victorian towns in the 1980s.

He is also accused of sexual penetration with one of the victims.

The Melbourne Magistrates Court heard on Friday that Cohen planned to contest the charges at a three-day hearing in April.
