Imagine you are a 13 year old girl. Sitting on a train, minding your own business. And this man, Abdulmanon Aliev, a 50 year old Tajikistan national, comes to sit next to you. He tries to talk to you using a translator app. You are not interested and move away to sit in another seat. Now Aliev follows you. Pins you against the window and then subjects you to a serious and prolonged sexual assault which the detective described as “one of the most abhorrent sexual assaults I’ve ever investigated”. Eventually the train arrives in Fenchurch Street (London) and you jump off and run to another train to get away as quickly as you can. This happened to a child on 16 June 2025. She was found in extreme distress by members of the public and the police were called. Two weeks later Aliev was tracked down and arrested in Peckham. Yesterday he was found guilty of two counts of Assault by Penetration and three counts of Sexual Assault and Attempted Rape. He will be sentenced at a later date.
