Hide AdSussex Police said Watson was handed a restraining order at Hastings Magistrates’ Court on January 23 2017, having been convicted of threatening words and behaviour for which he was also given an 18-month conditional discharge.
The order, which lasts until further court order, prohibits him from contacting several named people and departments, and from publishing material identifying one employee, at the Royal Sussex County Hospital in Brighton.
PC Claire Underwood said; “We want to interview Watson about reports that he has breached the restraining order.
“None of the alleged offences currently under investigation involve the use of or any threat of violence but they extend over many months now since last year, and relate to persistent fax and email contact with various offices and people at the Royal Sussex County Hospital.”
