LIBBY SUSPECT FACES STREET SEX ACT RAP

Search for student continues

- BY PAUL BYRNE

A BUTCHER held on suspicion of abducting Libby Squire has been charged with performing a sex act in her street.

Pawel Relowicz, 24, a married, Polish dad-of-two, is also accused of stealing knickers, sex toys, photos and condoms the weekend before the student vanished.

The charges are not related to Libby’s disappeara­nce.

Police have been questionin­g him since last Wednesday. Libby, 21, was last seen on January 31, when she was turned away from a night club in Hull, East Yorks.

One of the burglaries was at a student house three minutes’ walk from his marital home, reported between January 25 and 28.

The public decency charge accuses Relowicz of masturbati­ng in a public place on January 19. He is also accused of voyeurism last July, when “for the purposes of sexual gratificat­ion he observed a person doing a private act knowing the person did not consent to being observed”, a court was told.

He pleaded not guilty through an interprete­r before Hull magistrate­s yesterday. There was no bail applicatio­n and he was remanded in custody to appear at Hull crown court on March 11. Neither Libby’s parents nor Relowicz’s family was in court yesterday.

The search for Libby went on as police used power tools to strip back undergrowt­h at Oak Road playing fields not far from her home.
