A woman was sexually assaulted by man sitting next to her on a Glasgow train.
Police say the pervert touched and deliberately pressed himself against the victim, and even hid behind a newspaper to grope her leg.
The frightening incident unfolded when the creep sat beside her on the Scotrail service from Queen Street to Edinburgh Haymarket on January 13 between 4.15pm and 5pm.

British Transport Police explained the woman tried to put distance between her and the man, by moving her body towards the train window, but he continued to shift to keep his legs pressed against hers.
She changed seats at Linlithgow before getting off at Haymarket, and the man remained on the train.
Investigators are now appealing for other passenger who may have been on board to come forward.
The perpetrator is described as Asian, tall and of a medium build with black hair. He was wearing a dark jacket and blue jeans and was carrying a newspaper.
