The woman in the video showing herself sexually molesting a child has been arrested, charged and released on a K1000 police bail yesterday.
NCD acting Metropolitan Superintendent Christopher Tamari told PNGHausbung this morning that the 16 year old teenager was charged with one count each of sexual assault and producing a pornography video with a child and will appear in court next week.
“Under the law, she is a juvenile and we are processing the matter now with the prosecutions for her to appear at the juvenile court,” Mr Tamari said.
According to the acting Metropolitan Superintendent, she is the aunt of the child.
“She was taken in by her relatives and she did admit her actions but she also expressed remorse which is for the court to consider,” Mr Tamari said.
“But I wish to thank the family members for the good cooperation with police in handling this matter which has brought embarrassment to the family.”
“I’ve encouraged the family as well to take appropriate steps in seeking counselling and they have also made positive remarks to undertake those steps in rebuilding their family integrity.”
