A 25-year-old PH driver of Barataria will appear before a Port-of-Spain Magistrate today, charged with sexual touching of a minor.
According to an official Police Service release, the charge arose out of an incident involving the girl, who was travelling in a vehicle with the suspect.

The suspect was arrested and charged on Saturday 28 November 2020, by PC Castle of the North-Eastern Division Child Protection Unit (CPU).
The PH driver will answer to the charge when the matter comes up for hearing at the Port-of-Spain Magistrates’ Court today, Monday 30 November 2020.
