Shrek Pest Groped Woman At Movie-Themed Attraction

Shrek Pest: Srinivas Boreddy
A dad groped a young woman when he took his wife and two kids to a Shrek-themed attraction on London's Southbank - claiming "she looked very good" as he waited to board one of the rides.

The woman agreed to a friendly hug, but was shocked when 36 year-old Srinivas Boreddy grabbed her bum and tried to kiss her.

The IT specialist, of Pleasant Place, Chesterfield, Derbyshire pleaded guilty yesterday to sexually assaulting the unnamed woman at Shrek's Adventure!, County Hall on October 25.

Prosecutor Miss Colette Hanna told Camberwell Green Magistrates Court on Wednesday: "Mr. Boreddy tried to get on a bus-themed ride with his wife and two children.

"One child did not reach the required minimum height so Mr. Boreddy remained there while his wife and the other child went on the ride.

"He returned on his own later and asked if he could go on the ride and after waiting a few minutes he asked for a hug.

"He went to hug her and grabbed both of her buttocks, which he squeezed tight, and pulled her towards his groin.

"He went to kiss her face and she turned and he kissed her neck and she felt what she thought was a bite.

"She says she felt violated and started to cry."

The police were called and officer later questioned Indian-born first-time offender Boreddy.

"His account to the police mirrored the victim's, although he denied the bite," added Ms Hanna. "He said he thought she looked very good and thought they had been looking at each other and had made eye contact.

"He said he did not think it was inappropriate behaviour in England and when asked if it would have been acceptable in India agreed that it wasn't."

District Judge Timothy Stone bailed Boreddy until December 2 for a pre-sentence report, telling him: "I cannot rule out custody until I get a report and hear more about you. Be prepared for anything."
