Female Passenger Targeted By Tube Train Creep

A tube train pervert, who tried to expose himself to a female passenger and followed her to her stop, is being hunted by police.

British Transport Police (BTP) have released this image of their suspect and are requesting the assistance of the public in identifying him.

At approximately 10.00am on Monday, May 8 the woman was travelling on a Central Line Underground train when she was targeted by the mystery man between Mile End and Bethnal Green stations.

He deliberately sat opposite her and raised his leg on to the handrail and began rubbing his groin. 

As he attempted to expose himself the victim loudly confronted the male and moved away.

She saw the individual leave the train at Bethnal Green as he shouted at her from the platform. 

However, when she alighted a stop later at Liverpool Street Station, the same man was on the platform.

Officers believe the man in the image may have information which could help their investigation.

If you recognise him, or have any information, please contact BTP by texting 61016 or calling 0800 40 50 40 quoting reference 181 of 08/05/23.
