A former Anglican priest has been charged with sexually assaulting a 15-year-old boy in the NSW Hunter region in the early 1990s.
Newcastle detectives began investigating the now 75-year-old in 2016 after a referral from the child sexual abuse royal commission.
Police say the man is a former “senior” priest who allegedly abused the boy in 1991.
He was arrested on Tuesday morning at a home in Kotara.
