London: 

not 'virgin' territory?

A British couple has been arrested for allegedly having sex on a crowded Virgin train.

According to sources, the pair was spotted by a guard on the CCTV monitor and handed over to the police at Euston.

Sources revealed that the woman  (41) was performing a sexual act on the businessman  identified as Gregory Sim (49), on a daytime Virgin service from Liverpool to London Euston. The co-travellers ignored the couple and buried their heads behind their newspapers.

A British Transport Police spokesman said, "We can confirm that we arrested a man and a woman for allegedly engaging in sexual activity. The man, Gregory Sim, from Richmond, Surrey, has been charged with unacceptable behaviour on a train."

The woman, an Essex resident, was later bailed out with pending inquiries.

However, it is still unknown if the couple were in a relationship.

Sim is due to appear at City of Westminster Magistrates on November 17.
