Predatory Paedophile Caged For Abusing Teen

A “sexual predator” who twice assaulted a teenage boy – once in the street and again at his home - has been locked-up for six years.

Peter Stewart, 52, (pictured) of Conningham Road, Shepherd's Bush was also placed on the Sexual Offenders Register for life.

Isleworth Crown Court heard paedophile Stewart approached the 15 year-old at 8.00pm in Holland Park Avenue as he walked towards Notting Hill Underground Station on May 27.

The youngster was travelling home after playing football nearby with friends when the defendant engaged him in conversation and asked for his phone number and age.

Stewart then kissed the victim and sexually assaulted him in the street.


The terrified teenager tried to escape, but Stewart was able to coerce him into a taxi, which took him to his home address, where he was again subjected to a sexual assault.


The victim was finally allowed to leave and reported the incident to police, who arrested the defendant the next day.

Detective Inspector Julian King said: “Peter Stewart is a sexual predator, who deliberately targeted a young boy and subjected him to a sustained sexual assault.

“I would like to praise the victim whose courage and determination in reporting the incident to police has helped ensure Stewart has been removed from the streets and can't target any other youngsters.”
