PC Jasmine Stow, who is leading the case, said: ‘This was a cowardly and unprovoked assault on a young woman at the end of what had been an enjoyable night out. She is still traumatised by the incident.
‘I would ask the public to take a good look at the image and anyone who recognises this man is asked to get in touch as a matter of urgency.
‘I am also looking to identify a man who attempted to intervene shortly after this incident. This man approached the suspect near to Wilton Road but left the scene prior to police arrival. If this sounds like you please get in touch with police as you may be able to help our investigation.’
