Hide AdSussex police investigator Amber Evans said: ‘The girl was at the show with her family and Conrad, who also knew her, were sitting with each other in the crowd when he attacked her, without anyone else being aware.
‘She did not report the attack to anyone at the time and only 14 years later did she feel able to talk to the police about it.
‘We were still able to investigate and seek justice, and to give her access to sources of specialist advice and support.
‘You can always contact us if you have been the victim of sexual offences, no matter how long ago.’
