A man has been charged with breaching a court order in place to protect young girls from exploitation.
The 24-year-old from Walton was made subject of a Slavery and Trafficking Risk Order (STRO) in July last year following concerns around child sexual exploitation in Peterborough.
Yesterday (Thursday), he was arrested in Midgate, Peterborough city centre, by officers from the Neighbourhood Support Team who were on patrol in the area.
He has since been charged with three counts of breaching a STRO by possessing two mobile phones that had not been registered with police and not making them accessible for police to review upon request.
He has also been charged with racially aggravated behaviour with intent to cause harassment, alarm or distress, and using threatening behaviour with intent to cause fear of violence.
He appeared at Cambridge Magistrates’ Court this morning (Friday) where he has been remanded in prison to appear at Huntingdon Magistrates’ Court on Thursday (1 September).
