A ‘creepy’ Swindon sex offender has been convicted of breaching a court order.

Dr Prabhat Sakya was found guilty of sexually assaulting two women on a train – effectively trapping his victims by sitting next to them, and proceeding to touch their bodies.

The pervert, of Bude Road, Swindon, denied the charges but was convicted at trial in 2021. He avoided immediate custody and was slapped with a Sexual Harm Prevention Order (SHPO).

In 2023, Wiltshire 999s uncovered a Instagram page believed to be run by ‘creepy’ Sakya.

It featured photos of young women and girls, some with captions that raised concerns. Many of the photos posted on the social media profile were taken at the Swindon Designer Outlet.

Now, the 53-year-old has admitted breaching his SHPO – after officers found five iPhones, two computers and a tablet which had not been disclosed to his sex offender manager.

Another breach, involving the disposal of a laptop which was not disclosed to police, resulted in a ninth charge of breaching a SHPO. He admitted all offences at Swindon Magistrates’ Court.

Sakya was handed a 12-month community order with the requirement to complete 20 days of activity with the probation service. He was also fined £200.
