Investigating officer Detective Inspector Tejinder Sidhu said: “Albert Lamb committed horrific crimes against his victims.
“My team, alongside the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS), have worked hard in bringing him swiftly to justice with the evidence leaving no option but to plead guilty.
“I am glad that Lamb has pleaded guilty to these offences, as it means the victims won’t have to go through a trial.
“I would like to thank the victims for coming forward and supporting our investigation and their bravery should be recognised.
