He was deemed likely to re-offend sexually and violently, police warned, they said all women are at risk.

The 40-year-old was declared a long-term offender in 2005 after having been convicted of sexual assault and given a five-year supervision order. After being charged with several offences again in 2007, including sexual assault and forcible confinement, a judge extended the supervision order to 10 years.
