The man, who cannot be named, was labelled "callous" for infecting his
lover during a two year relationship, in which he failed to inform his
partner of the disease.
Isleworth Crown Court found the 47 year old guilty of grievous bodily
harm after he changed his plea when confronted with scientific proof.
His ex partner found out about the condition through a mutual friend,
the man initially denied having the virus. He now faces a jail sentence
and joins six others who have been convicted of infecting people with
HIV over the last three years in the UK.
Detective Constable Elliot Toms said: "He is a callous individual who
has behaved in an unfaithful way. He gave us no indication as to his
intent or motivation."
