A sex offender has been sentenced to 14 years in prison for sexually abusing two girls and a woman. The investigation began in October 2019 when Kent Police received a report of a sexual assault on a woman in Dover the previous month.
As the investigation unfolded, detectives discovered there were non-recent offences against two additional victims. Both victims were abused in Ashford when they were children, one in the 1990s and another around 2010. The suspect, Nicholas Lumsden, was identified and subsequently arrested.
