A Thornton Heath man has admitted sexually assaulting a woman and exposing himself at a hospital.

Varghese Thomas, 43, of Kynaston Crescent, appeared at Camberwell Magistrates' Court yesterday charged with committing the two offences at King’s College Hospital on October 9 last year.

He pleaded guilty to both charges and was bailed until February 11, when the court will receive a pre-sentencing report.

Mr Thomas is not allowed to contact the victim or visit the hospital, except for a pre-arranged appointment or for a medical emergency.
