Mirza Mohammad Saeed, who targeted victims near Edinburgh’s Union Canal, was put on sex offenders register for five years.
A serial sex attacker who targeted lone women - including a 15-year-old girl - has escaped a jail sentence.
The dad-of-six appeared for sentencing at the city's sheriff court on Friday nearly eight months after pleading guilty to a string of offences. Sentencing had been delayed several times since his guilty plea last October due to additional reports being needed and interpreters being unavailable. Mr Clark said the women were approached by Saeed and asked to take his photograph before he asked for a snap of them both together.
Saeed, of the city’s Fountainbridge area, approached the teen and asked her to take his picture before leaning in and trying to kiss her on the mouth. The victim fought him off.
