A Barnes resident has been sentenced for his sexually-explicit communication with a 'youngster' he believed was under 16 years-old.

Shaun Hoell, 39, will now remain on the Sex Offenders Register for the next seven years, which will keep police informed of his whereabouts and residence.

At Wimbledon Magistrates Court he received six months imprisonment, suspended for two years.

He was charged with intending to obtain sexual gratification by communicating about sexual intercourse and sending indecent images.

Hoell was also ordered to complete 100 hours community service and up to thirty days of Probation Service-recommended rehabilitation.
