Having read the thread: the reason that you did not know about some of the earlier incidents is that the unfortunate ladies , in some cases, did not report it straight away and only "came out" when it was publicised at their work.  I was not aware of any November incident in Boston Manor but had been told of a December incident when contacted by GSK and the January incident when the police were given my name as a contact by a local resident.  Specifically, if it helps, the bus stop opposite the park and a 30 year old man, possibly asian lurking in the shadows is one of two suspects in the area. Both the police and GSK are on the case.

My bad on missing those but still hardly narrows it down and still not much to go on.

It says how tall he is and the colour of his eyes and skin on the OP.Read it again perhaps?

Whilst this sort of attack is obviously traumatic the descriptions cover just about every man I've seen in the area since November!!Think harder ladies?  Stature, Build, any distinguishing features, skin colour, clean shaven, colour of eyes etc. etc.  Any specific accent, speech mannerism?  As descriptions go that so far isn't going to help much?Also the locations are pretty wooly?  Is there a pattern in the times of the incidents?  If the community is to help it needs more than the story so far.

Thanks for that. If "assistance from the community will be vital to solve this series of crimes" this website might have been a good place for the police to start. This is the first I've heard of it and it's been going on since November.
