British Transport Police are looking for a man in connection to a sexual assault
The British Transport Police have released an image in connection with the assault.
On Thursday, May 1, between 9am and 9.45am a woman in her early twenties was followed by a man off the District line train at Mile End to head East bound.
Despite the platform not being busy he stood extremely close to her before sexually assaulting her.
The man then followed the woman onto a bench to wait for a train, before following her onto a train, staring at her throughout.
He then followed her off the train at South Woodford, but the woman jumped back onto the train as the doors closed to get away from him.
Detectives believe the man in the image may have information that could help with their investigation.
Anyone who recognises the man is urged to get in contact with British Transport Police.
