Sexual Assault and Robbery

Sydney's `hate machine' radio 2GB and Murdochian Telecrap have been screaming about this case in a derogatory manner. Naturally no one condones unlawful actions or behavior. However, no one should be denied natural justice, i.e. presumption of innocence.

I have spoken with the detective in charge (856 67 449) and he appears to be a nice person. The case number is H 3161 6875 and the file could be viewed at the Kograh Local Court.

If you know any more regarding this case please assist us if you wish.

Taxi driver charged with sexual assault
November 4, 2007 - 6:49AM

A taxi driver has been charged with sexually assaulting and robbing a female passenger after an early-morning cab ride through Sydney.

The driver was arrested at 1.30am (AEDT) on Sunday in his taxi on the Princess Highway at Kogarah, in Sydney's south, shortly after an 18-year-old woman escaped from the cab and raised the alarm with passing police.

Police allege the man sexually assaulted and robbed the teenager after picking her up from Paddington, in Sydney's inner-east.

A 21-year-old Wiley Park man has been charged with sexual assault and aggravated robbery.

He was been refused bail and is due to appear in Kogarah Local Court on Monday.
