The man then boarded the same bus as the girl and attempted to sit next to her, prompting her to move away.

Detective Constable Aaz Tourabi said: “This incident was a particularly distressing for the teenage girl.

“She has been forced to endure unwanted sexual contact which is unacceptable. It is vital that we catch the person responsible so he doesn’t do this again.”

CCTV of a man police wanted to speak to was featured by the Peterborough Telegraph yesterday and a man has since come forward for interview.
