CHARGES of indecently assaulting children against a former Catholic priest, who worked in the Shoalhaven in the 1970s, will be heard in a Sydney court on June 23.

Robert Flaherty, 70, who now lives at Wentworth Falls in the Blue Mountains, appeared in Parramatta Local Court on Wednesday before Magistrate Miszalski, facing five counts of indecent assault against children.

Magistrate Miszalski adjourned the matters until June for hearing.

The offences were alleged to have taken place in the Shoalhaven and Sydney up to 40 years ago, with the alleged victims aged between 11 and 15.

Detectives from Blacktown Local Area Command established Strike Force Nemesis to investigate the allegations.

Flaherty’s bail was continued.
