In this article, you can watch a video of detectives arresting a member of the Christian Brothers religious order at Sydney airport on 19 August 2014. The Christian Brother has been charged in relation to alleged indecent assaults upon children in the Goulburn area in southern New South Wales.

The detectives are based at Goulburn (within the Hume Local Area Command of the NSW Police).

In February 2014, the New South Wales Police formed a unit (called Strike Force Charish) to investigate allegations of a series of child sex offences said to have occurred between 1978 and 1980.

The offences allegedly were committed against eight boys aged 12, while the man was a teacher at a private school in Goulburn.
