Wisemans Ferry – Strike Force Twill investigating child sex abuse claims from the 1980s

Police have been told between 1982 and 1987, a resident of a holiday park allegedly sexually assaulted a number of young boys.

As inquiries continue, police are appealing for anyone who may be able to assist detectives, including anyone who holidayed in the area at that time and witnessed suspicious behaviour.
