A Watford man will appear in crown court charged with exposure and attempted sexual assault after incidents in Cassiobury Park.

Sid Ali Djedi, of no fixed address in Watford, has been charged with five counts of exposure and one count of attempted sexual assault on a female.

Earlier this week Hertfordshire Constabulary confirmed they had arrested a man after five reports of "a man indecently exposing himself".

The reports had been made on Monday (May 22), Tuesday (23), and Sunday (28) last week.

Djedi appeared before Hatfield Magistrates’ Court on May 31 and was remanded into custody.

The 29-year-old is next due to appear at St Albans Crown Court on July 3.

Also in court

Jamie Rushton appeared in Wood Green Crown Court on Tuesday (May 30) where he was sentenced to 18 months in prison and placed on the sex offenders' register for 10 years after admitting to sexual assault.

He will also have to follow the requirements of a sexual harm prevention order for 10 years.

The married 45-year-old was ordered to pay costs and a victim services surcharge.

Rushton, a vet from Rickmansworth, had admitted to the sexual assault, in June 2017, at a previous hearing.
