Dartford Man Charged With 33 Sexual Offences Across South London

A man from Dartford has been charged with 33 sexual offences alleged to have taken place across multiple locations in south London, police confirmed on Saturday.

According to investigators, the charges relate to a series of incidents reported over a period of time in several south London boroughs. Detectives said the allegations involve multiple complainants, though specific details about the individuals involved have not been released in order to protect their identities.

The suspect, whose name has been formally released by police, was arrested earlier this week following what officers described as a “complex and sensitive investigation.” Authorities said the breadth of the charges reflects the scale of the inquiry, which has involved specialist officers trained in supporting victims of sexual offences.

The Metropolitan Police stated that the alleged offences span a range of serious sexual crimes. Officers emphasised that each complainant is being offered dedicated support services as the case progresses through the criminal justice system.

The man has been remanded in custody and is expected to appear before magistrates in the coming days. Court proceedings will determine whether the case is transferred to the Crown Court due to the seriousness and number of charges.

Police have urged anyone with additional information relevant to the investigation to come forward, stressing that all reports will be handled with confidentiality and sensitivity.

As the case is now active, legal restrictions apply to ensure a fair trial. No further details about the allegations, the complainants, or the evidence can be published at this stage.
