A man has been refused bail after allegedly being caught sexually assaulting a young girl he met and groomed over social media.
Jamil Ahmed Chowdhury, 22, was detained by the family of a 14-year-old girl who he allegedly kissed and sexually assaulted during an encounter on January 2 this year.
After that alleged meeting the Bangladeshi national had kept in contact with the girl, sending a high number of messages to each other over Instagram.
Following the first alleged meeting the girl s mother became aware of the messages between the pair, and police said she told Chowdhury her daughter was underage.
