Detectives have charged a youth worker following an investigation into the alleged sexual abuse of a teenage girl on the state’s Central Coast.
Earlier this week, detectives from the State Crime Command’s Child Abuse and Sex Crimes Squad commenced an investigation following reports a 15-year-old girl had been sexually assaulted by a man while in his care.
Following inquiries, a 26-year-old man attended Belmont Police Station about 11am yesterday (Tuesday 31 August 2021), where he was charged with three counts of intentionally sexually touch child between 10 and 16 years.
Police will allege in court the man sexually touched the girl on numerous occasions between April and August 2021 while she was under the man’s care.
The man, who is a youth worker, was refused bail to appear at Belmont Local Court today (Wednesday 1 September 2021).
Investigations are continuing.
