Attack took place between Northolt and Greenford
Officers investigating a sexual assault aboard a Route 395 bus are appealing for the public's help in tracing a man they wish to speak to. A woman was attacked on the bus between Northolt and Greenford at approximately noon on 17 December 2020. Detective Sergeant Ian Beattie, of the Roads and Transport Policing Command, said: "Maintaining a safe network for those travelling on buses is vital. Sexual assaults on buses in London are very rare but when they do happen we prioritise supporting the victim and catching those responsible. "The technology available to use is very strong and we encourage anyone who is a victim of witnesses of such offence to contact police so we can work to track down the perpetrator. "These despicable acts are unacceptable and will not be tolerated. We will continue to do all we can to make bus routes safe for those travelling." Mandy McGregor, TfL’s Head of Transport Policing and Community Safety, said, “The bus network is a low crime environment but when heinous acts like these are committed we are relentless in our pursuit of the perpetrators. I would urge anyone who witnessed any of these crimes or recognises the men in the CCTV images to come forward to ensure those responsible face the full force of the law.” Anyone with information is asked to contact police via 101 or tweet @MetCC. To remain anonymous call the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
