Choudhary was found to have attacked the unnamed man in Renfrew, Scotland, on January 8, 2023.
The court heard that he approached the victim, before shoving him and attempting to kiss him on a crowded high street.
Then, he inserted his hand into his victim’s trousers and groped him.
After the horrifying attack, Choudhary was taken into custody by police.
However, he then denied the charges of sexual assault against him.
Eventually, he was found guilty by a unanimous jury decision of sexual assault at Paisley Sheriff Court.
Choudhary has been placed on the sex offenders’ register, though the length of his time on the register will be determined at his sentencing next month.
His defence called on the court to allow their client on bail, where he now finds himself.
The Sun has approached Police Scotland after the ruling.
The news comes after British Transport Police revealed that the number of recorded cases of sexual assault on public transport has skyrocketed.
According to cops, the number jumped from 1,676 cases in 2023/24 to 1,799 cases in 2024/25.
After news of the huge spike broke, Ciara Bergman, CEO of Rape Crisis England & Wales, a charity that seeks to end sexual violence, said: ”Every day, millions of people use UK railways to get to work, take their children to school, and go about their daily lives.
“It should go without saying that anyone doing so should not experience or witness sexual assault or harassment, or be in fear of this.
“And yet what these statistics illustrate, is just how prevalent sexual violence, abuse and harassment are on public transport, and that women and girls are particularly at risk.”
Just under 700 assaults were recorded on the London Underground, accounting for 40 per cent of all cases.
However, Network Rail also recorded a staggering 148 sexual assaults between 2024 and 2025.
