Australian police seek help in case against ex-Fiji resident

Saturday, February 28, 2009

Update: 1:14PM EW South Wales police are seeking information on a former Fiji resident and preacher who is accused of sexually assaulting a church member about seven years ago.

The pastor, aged 62, has been accused by a young woman of having committed sexual and indecent assaults in 2002 and 2003. She was 13 years old then.

The woman, who married last year, reported the matter to police on the advice of a church superior, from whom she had sought marriage counseling.

NSW police, on their official website, are calling anyone with information to contact Green Valley Police (00-61-02-9607-1799).

More than 250 families who were formerly Fiji residents live in Green Valley.

The accused was a pastor in the Green Valley area until he broke away from the church which the complainant is a member of.

He was charged last Sunday, granted conditional bail and is scheduled to appear before the Liverpool Local Court on March 9.
