Nigerian man banned for 5 yrs from approaching women he doesn't know following sexual assault case

Aniefiok Udo was spared jail term after admitting

to a string of sexual assaults on the London

Tube

. He pleaded guilty to three counts of sexual

assault on December 14. He was handed a 16-

week suspended sentence and banned for five

years from approaching any woman he does not

know while using public transport.

49-year-old Udo, from Ilford, assaulted the same

23-year-old woman on two separate occasions

while travelling on the Central Line last year.



He approached her and began touching her after

boarding trains at Hainault station at about 9pm

on both occasions, Snaresbrook Crown Court

heard.



After she reported the incidents to police in

January, another woman also came forward to

say she had been assaulted by the man.

Detective Constable Martin Chapman said:



"No woman should fear using public transport,

and we are committed to working with our

partners to keep the rail network a safe place.



"I am pleased Udo has been brought before the

courts to answer for his disgusting behaviour,

and I would like to thank the women involved for

reporting his actions to us."
