A sexual harm prevention order breach is a criminal offence under the Sexual Offences Act 2003, and a person commits an offence if they fail to comply with any requirement or prohibition imposed by the order without reasonable excuse.

  • Failing to comply with prohibitions or requirements imposed under a SHPO breach under the Sexual Offences Act 2003.
  • Engaging in restricted behaviour such as prohibited contact or internet use during a SHPO breach investigation process in the UK.
  • Committing a criminal offence by non-compliance under a UK breach of SHPO legal procedure.

  • A valid SHPO was in force and properly served, forming a prosecution for SHPO breach in England and Wales courts.
  • The defendant knowingly breached a condition of the order under a contested SHPO breach defence strategy in the UK.
  • The breach occurred without reasonable excuse under a sexual harm prevention order breach offence before a criminal court.

Investigations may involve the police, CPS and probation services. Evidence can include digital communications, device data, witness statements, probation records, police reports and the wording of the order itself.
