| Red Rose Database
Cardiff Sexual Abuser
A man named Mansoor Ahmed, originally from Cardiff, has been sentenced to prison after a series of disturbing sexual assaults on women at prominent London Underground stations. The British Transport Police conducted a thorough investigation that led to his eventual arrest and conviction.
Ahmed, aged 30, was sentenced to 26 months in prison and received a 10-year order to be listed on the sex offenders register. He pleaded guilty to two counts of sexual assault, which were committed at different locations within the London Underground network. The court proceedings revealed chilling details of the incidents, which caused significant distress to the victims involved.
The first assault occurred on September 6, 2020, at Gloucester Road underground station. According to court reports, the victim was walking up the stairs when she was unexpectedly sexually assaulted by Ahmed. The victim's screams alerted nearby passengers, and Ahmed quickly fled the scene. She reported the incident to the authorities the following day, providing a description that eventually led to his identification.
Following an appeal to the public, Ahmed was identified and sought for questioning. His photograph was circulated widely in an effort to locate him. Despite this, his whereabouts remained unknown for some time.
On November 20, 2020, a second woman was assaulted while descending the stairs at Charing Cross Station. Ahmed was observed walking away from the scene after the attack, but the victim managed to spot British Transport Police officers at the station. She promptly reported the incident, which led to Ahmed’s swift detention and arrest at the station itself.
Initially, Ahmed was released under investigation as police continued their inquiries. The two incidents were linked through evidence and investigation, but Ahmed’s location remained elusive for a period. It was not until May 27, 2021, that authorities tracked him down. He was found aboard a ferry arriving at Holyhead from Ireland and was arrested at that time.
Following his arrest, Ahmed was charged with the two sexual assault offences. He was subsequently brought back to the UK and appeared before Cardiff Crown Court, where he admitted to the charges. His sentencing took place on Tuesday, January 21, at Cardiff Crown Court, where he was formally sentenced for his crimes.
Ahmed’s case highlights the importance of vigilant police work and public cooperation in bringing offenders to justice. His actions caused significant harm and distress to the victims, and his conviction serves as a reminder of the serious consequences of such criminal behavior.
