Sarah Everard's killer Wayne Couzens offered no indication of plea to two charges of indecent exposure when he appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Friday.

Couzens is serving a whole-life sentence for the kidnap, rape and murder of 33-year-old marketing executive Ms Everard in March 2021, when he was a serving Metropolitan Police officer.

The 49-year-old appeared at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Friday to face two new charges of indecent exposure following a referral of evidence from the Met Police.

The alleged incidents are said to have happened in June 2015 in the Dover area of Kent, and November 2020 in the Deal area of the county, according to Scotland Yard.

Couzens has already appeared in court charged with four other incidents of alleged indecent exposure said to have taken place in Swanley, Kent, before Ms Everard’s death.

Those charges state he allegedly “intentionally exposed his genitals intending that someone would see them and be caused alarm and distress”.

The incidents allegedly took place on four occasions in Swanley – between January 22 and February 1 2021, January 30 and February 6, and on February 14 and February 27.

Couzens will next appear at the Old Bailey on October 3.
