Aylesbury police re-appeal for info after sexual assault

More information has been released after a sexual assault in Aylesbury last Saturday.

Police now describe the offender as "an Asian man, of medium build, with short black hair and a beard".

The incident happened at around 10.30pm on Saturday (19/6), when a 25-year-old woman was walking along Cambridge Street. She entered a shop called JAFFNA where she bought a can of drink before leaving the shop and walking down Bierton Road.

Between the first entrance to the Whiteleaf Centre on Manor House Close and Dennis Street, she was pulled behind a brick wall by the offender.

There was a verbal altercation and the offender then assaulted her. The victim kicked the offender and ran back towards JAFFNA.

Investigating officer Detective Constable Robert Mogridge, of CID based at Aylesbury police station said: “We are appealing to anyone who might have seen or heard this sexual assault to come forward and contact us.

“Thames Valley Police takes sexual assault very seriously and we are conducting a thorough investigation into this incident. Thankfully the victim did not sustain any injuries.

“The victim was approached by a black man and a white woman in their mid to late twenties when she ran back to JAFFNA. The pair asked the victim if she was OK and offered to call someone for her.
