Police Hunt Man Over Shocking Late-Night Attacks in Tower Hamlets
Detectives are on the trail of a man linked to a string of disturbing incidents targeting women in Tower Hamlets. The suspect is believed to have carried out indecent exposures and unwanted touching between September and November.
Four Women Speak Out
Detective Inspector John Macleod, leading the Tower Hamlets CID investigation, revealed the chilling details:
“Our objective is to prevent any further offences, and we have now linked these reports which were made by four different women. “If you recognise this man we would like you to contact police, as he may be able to help our enquiries. “The unidentified suspect has caused distress to local women in a number of ways. The incidents took place between Saturday 9 September and Thursday 2 November, typically between 11pm and 1am. “In three of the incidents, an indecent exposure took place, while in another, the victim was asked to film the suspect for a supposedly innocent purpose, before he sat on the floor and began sucking his toe. The woman was understandably upset, ran away and made a report to police. “In two incidents, the suspect tried to touch the victims in some way. At one point he also asked to see one of the victim’s feet. “No physical injuries were inflicted at any time but this is clearly concerning and criminal behaviour and our priority is to locate whoever is responsible.”
