A body-builder has been arrested over an allegation he sexually assaulted a teenage boy in Huddersfield.
Akinwale Arobieke, 52, of Liverpool, allegedly approached a 17-year-old boy in Huddersfield Bus Station on Monday at 9pm.
He allegedly touched the boy on his biceps and thighs. The boy ran off and a short time later reported the incident to police.
Officers in Liverpool were alerted and Arobieke, formerly of Devonshire Road, Toxteth, later handed himself in to St Anne’s Police Station on Wednesday night.
He was interviewed at Liverpool and brought to Huddersfield where he has been held in custody, West Yorkshire Police confirmed last night.
He is accused of breaking a strict Sexual Offences Prevention Order (SOPO) that stops him ordering men to perform exercises in the street or measuring their biceps.
He was given the order after he was jailed for five years in 2003 for 15 charges of harassment.
It also bans him from certain specific activities, including feeling a person’s muscles or getting them to carry out “squats” in public.
He has since been jailed three times for flouting the order.
In August this year he went on trial accused of breaching the order eight times but was cleared of all charges at Manchester Crown Court.
He last appeared at the same court last month and was cleared of attempting to squeeze DI Lewis Hughes’ biceps during a bodybuilding event in Manchester.
