A British former public school teacher has been found guilty of sexually abusing street children in Kenya.

Simon Harris was found guilty of seven charges of indecent and sexual assault on the youngsters in Gilgil.

He was also convicted at Birmingham Crown Court of four counts of possessing indecent images of children.

The trial jury cleared Harris, 55, of Pudleston, near Leominster, Herefordshire of seven charges, including rape.

Judge Philip Parker QC told the jury he would accept majority verdicts on five remaining counts against the defendant.

Harris had faced 23 charges in total, including 18 allegations relating to assaults.

Charity abuse

The offences were committed while Harris was running a gap year charity he set up in the East African country in the 1990s.

During his trial prosecutors said he lured street boys to his home, known locally as "The Green House", by offering them food and shelter.

Before the trial, Harris admitted six offences of indecent assault against three boys aged between 13 and 14 when he was a teacher at Shebbear College, Devon, in the 1980s.

He had originally faced 22 charges relating to assaults in Kenya, but Judge Philip Parker QC told jurors four had been removed from the indictment mid-trial.
