A man will appear in court on Wednesday charged over the alleged sexual assault of a young girl in Newcastle two years ago.
In June 2020, detectives commenced an investigation following reports a young girl had been sexually abused by a man known to her.
Following inquiries, investigators arrested a 41-year-old man at Campbelltown Police Station just after 5pm on Tuesday.
He was charged with one count of sexual intercourse with a child under age of 10.
Police allege the man sexually assaulted the girl – then aged nine – while staying in the Newcastle area in 2018.
The man was refused bail to appear at Campbelltown Local Court on Wednesday.
