Cab driver may have attacked over 100 women

CAB driver John Worboys is believed to be Britain’s most prolific sex offender after it emerged he may have attacked at least 102 women.

Worboys, 53, was jailed indefinitely in April 2009 for drugging and sexually assaulting women passengers.

At the time, detectives linked him to at least 85 crimes.

But Scotland Yard said yesterday a number of women had come forward since he had been jailed, and his alleged victims number more than 100.

About 19 women have made allegations against him since his conviction, police said. And it is thought there may be still more victims who have not come forward.

Not all the women claimed the former stripper and adult film star had raped them, but all accused him of sexually motivated offences.

The attacks are believed to have been carried out over a period of about five years, between 2002 and 2007.

Worboys was found guilty of assaulting 12 women during an 18-month reign of terror in the capital.

Many of his victims were young women who had been drinking in trendy night spots in the West End and Chelsea.
