Moffat Konofilia, who travelled 10,000 miles from the Solomon Islands, tried to kiss the terrified 17-year-old as she sat on Weymouth seafront in Dorset.The ex-footballer, 48, told her he was on holiday – but in fact he lived on the controversial migrant barge moored at nearby Portland.
The girl said Konofilia commented on the colour of her skin and said he had “never been this close to a white woman” which made her feel uncomfortable.
She began secretly recording their conversation and was heard saying ‘no, no’ as Konofilia tried to kiss her on the mouth before apologising.
The victim left to walk home and Konofilia tried to follow her but she managed to lose him down an alleyway. Sentencing was adjourned for reports and he was released on bail.
He now lives at Quadrant Hall in Coventry, a former university halls that was converted to house 100 asylum seekers.
Although he speaks English, he said his first language is Pijin, a common language in the Solomon Islands.
At a previous court hearing he said he had two interviews for his asylum claim which depended on the outcome of this case.
