A student from south London avoided a prison sentence after he sexually assaulted a 15-year-old girl and watched videos of children being raped. 

Anders Diaz Huiza, 21, smiled and waved at cameras as he left Inner London Crown Court a free man after he was given a suspended sentence. 

In spring 2021 he watched vile videos of children being sexually abused on a laptop that was being loaned to him by New City College. 

The horrific videos which were found on that laptop and other devices which belonging to him included some which showed children as young as four being raped by men, prosecutor Arizuna Asante told the court. 

After Huiza was arrested for possession of indecent images he was released on bail to his home on Newington Causeway in Elephant and Castle. 

On September 24, 2021, he then sexually assaulted a 15-year-old girl by entering her flat and getting into bed with her. 

He claims he was very drunk at the time of the incident as he had been drinking after he had finished a bartending shift. 

Judge Ian Darling said it was not clear whether Huiza had been acting out some sort of fantasy when he carried out the sexual assault on the underage girl. 

Huiza pleaded guilty to three counts of possessing indecent images. He denied sexually assaulting the 15-year-old but a jury found him guilty at trial. 

On Thursday (July 27) Huiza appeared in court to be sentenced for both matters. 

In mitigation, defence counsel Samantha Davies told the court that Huiza had experienced trauma early in his life and was also very naïve. 

Huiza was given a sentence of one year and nine months, suspended for two years, meaning he won’t see the inside of a cell unless he commits another offence during that time. 

He was also ordered to carry out 150 hours of unpaid work and will have to sign the Sex Offenders Register for 10 years.
