“There’s only information relating to this one particular incident.
“We’re calling on any members of the public for any information relating to this matter or any other matter of a similar nature to contact Cootamundra Police or Crime Stoppers.
“We’re looking for any information that could be dating back years, it could be dating back months during 2018.”
The man has been granted conditional bail and is set to appear at Cootamundra Local Court on February 4 this year.
Anyone with further information is urged to contact Cootamundra Police Station on 6942 0099 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
