Forensic Link Sees Man Arrested Over Historical Child Sex Assault At Cardiff

BY IAN CROUCH

A man has been charged after being forensically linked to the historic alleged sexual assault of a teenage boy in the Hunter in 2006.

Police allege the man forced the then 15-year-old boy into a cubicle of a public toilet and sexually and indecently assaulted him.

As a result of forensic matching and after further inquiries, police arrested a 58-year-old man at Bathurst.

He's been charged with two counts of aggravated sexual assault and has been remanded in custody to face Bathurst Local Court next Tuesday.
