A contract worker employed at a South Australian school has been formally charged with aggravated indecent assault against a student following an alleged incident in late April, and is scheduled to appear before a local court early next month. The accused, a 30-year-old man from Adelaide’s eastern suburbs, was taken into custody on the same day that law enforcement responded to reports of the assault, according to official statements from South Australia Police.
The reported attack unfolded on Monday, April 27, at a school located in the Adelaide Hills region. Authorities have not released the name or exact location of the campus involved in the case to protect the privacy of the victim and the broader school community. After completing initial investigative work, police took the suspect into custody and formally charged him with the aggravated offense. He has since been released on bail, with his first court appearance set for July 2 at the Mount Barker Magistrates Court.
South Australia Police is now calling on members of the public who may hold additional information connected to the incident to come forward to assist with the ongoing investigation.
