The police officer Jelic assaulted told jurors how Jelic began groping her while she and her colleague were on the floor, attempting to restrain him outside a block of flats in Scotland Street, Sheffield city centre on April 27 last year.

 

 

'I couldn't get his hands off me,' said the woman, adding: 'It felt like he was trying to penetrate me through my trousers. Both of us were trying to get his hands away.'

'As soon as I would get one of his hands off my crotch area, the other one would replace it. He continued that behaviour for what felt like a long time.'  'He made sexual comments throughout the incident,' she continued.

 

 

When the two female officers arrived on the scene, they found Jelic naked from the waist down, brandishing a For Sale sign at them, the court heard. 

He was under the influence of the Class A drug, MDMA, at the time of the offence.
