A 22-year-old man has pleaded guilty to a series of sexual assaults against teenage girls in Clapham.
John Nyhan of Ingrave Street, Wandsworth, pleaded guilty at Wimbledon Magistrates’ Court on February 13 to three separate incidents of sexual assault and one count of harassment.
Detectives linked three sexual assaults committed between January 8 and February 4 in the Clapham Common area.
As a result of enquiries, Nyhan was identified and arrested on February 11, and he was charged two days later.
He will be sentenced at Kingston Crown Court on a date yet to be confirmed.
Detective Inspector Aaron Moon, whose team led the investigation, said: “Nyhan remains in custody following his guilty plea and will find out the details of his sentence in due course.
“We know that his offending has caused a lot of concern locally and I hope that his conviction will allay some of those fears.
“It’s possible that Nyhan may have committed further offences that have not yet been reported to police and I would encourage anyone who is yet to speak with us to please come forward.”
