Elite school teens face court on sexual assault charges
Judge Sue Duncombe warned media after the juveniles were illegally identified online, and the boys remain on bail under strict conditions, officials said.
- Three Scots College students charged with aggravated sexual assault appeared at Surry Hills Children's Court on Tuesday, facing charges related to an alleged July 22 incident in a Bondi Junction alleyway.
- Police allege the trio sexually assaulted and touched a 14-year-old girl during a 55-minute window on the Wednesday evening, with charges filed earlier this month following investigation.
- Judge Sue Duncombe warned media about identifying the teenagers, stating the case has "attracted a lot of media attention," while the boys remain on strict bail conditions including a 200-metre exclusion zone around the complainant.
- Some of the boys' names were illegally published online, leading to "repercussions" including one student's home being egged; legal representatives urged media outlets to close comment sections to protect identities.
- Scots College principal Ian Lambert emailed parents on Sunday confirming the school is cooperating with police while warning students against online threats, with the case adjourned until October 20.
