Officers from British Transport Police are appealing for information after a woman was assaulted on board a Northern Line train at Kennington.
The incident happened shortly between 12am and 1am on Saturday 14 January on a southbound Northern Line service. The victim had approached a man and woman engaged in a sexual activity and challenged them to stop. The man then stood up and became aggressive, spitting at her and pushing her.
Today, officers are releasing an image of a man they would like to speak with in connection. Do you know who he is, if so please get in touch.
Investigating officer PC Suleman Yazdani, said: “This is highly inappropriate behaviour, the woman was simply asking this couple to stop, there was no need for aggression.
“If you were on that train or saw anybody acting suspiciously I would urge you to contact us as soon as possible. Any information, no matter how small, could be vital to our investigation.”
Anyone with any information is asked to contact BTP by sending a text to 61016 or by calling 0800 40 50 40 quoting reference 13 of 14/01/2017.
