Overview
- Craig Anthony Anderson, 38, was jailed Monday, March 23, to 22 months at the Old Bailey after convictions for four sexual assaults and one count of stalking.
- Prosecutors said he targeted lone women on trains and at stations from June to October 2025 across central London and Surrey, including Bank, Liverpool Street, Westminster, Guildford, Epsom, Purley and Redhill.
- One victim endured weeks of harassment as he followed her across the network, forced her to hide in station toilets and sent repeated sexual messages until his arrest.
- Detectives linked him through CCTV and an identification parade, then arrested him during a Passport Office interview after he claimed he planned to leave the UK within weeks.
- The court imposed a 10-year Sexual Harm Prevention Order that bars him from approaching, sitting or standing near lone women, and police said he showed no remorse during questioning.
