David Delahunty, 56, adjudged as sex pest, has been banned from talking to a woman for ten years. He risks being jailed if he talks to a woman he does know. A Judge imposed the ban after Delahunty admitted sexual assault. He walked up to a stranger in London, at a bus stop, kissed her on the cheek and told her she was a " bonny lass"
.
But he then terrified the woman by making lewd suggestions and falsely claiming he was a rapist who had just been freed from prison. The victim, in her 20s, was left feeling " disgusted and frightened". the judge was told. Delahunty, of Carlisle, Cunbria, was given a nine month suspension jail term, and 120 hours' community work.
He was also put on the sex offenders register and made subject to a sex Offence prevention Order. The order bans hin from speaking to a woman he does not know in public places for the next ten years, except in an emergency. He faces up to five years in jail if he breaches the terms
Delahunty had been drinking heavily since the incident, Carlisle Crown Court was told. Judge Paul Batty called it " a disgraceful episode". Delahunty's laywer Keith Thomas said " He grew up in a big family where such banter was commonplace. He realizes this has to cease and he should not talk to any woman he does not know.Source: myzimbabwe.co.zw
