John Worboys Charged With Four Sexual Offences Between 2000 - 2008
John Worboys has been charged with drugging four alleged victims with the intent of committing sex crimes.
The 62-year-old, who is currently detained at HMP Wakefield, is set to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on May 23.
Now known as John Radford, he faces two counts of administering a drug with intent to commit rape or indecent assault, and two of administering a substance with intent to commit a sexual offence.
The alleged crimes are said to have taken place between 2000 and 2008 in London.
A Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) spokesman said: “In September 2018, the Crown Prosecution Service received a file of evidence from the Metropolitan Police relating to allegations of non-recent sexual assault and of administering drugs to cause unconsciousness.
“Following a review of the evidence, the CPS has today charged John Radford, formerly known as John Worboys, with four offences.”
The charges concern four individuals and relate to allegations made to police in early 2018.
