$5,000 reward for reports of sexual exploitation of children
$5,000 reward offered for information about the sexual exploitation of Aboriginal children.
"We're Watching You" is a joint initiative between the NSW Police Force, Crime Stoppers and the Aboriginal Land Council to encourage reports of sexual exploitation of Aboriginal children along major roadways in regional and rural locations.
A reward of $5,000 is offered for any information that leads to an arrest for sexual exploitation of an Aboriginal minor.
The campaign will be promoted along major trucking routes and highways throughout the state to encourage reporting from surrounding community members.
Assistant Commissioner Stephen Bradshaw, NSW Police spokesperson for Aboriginal Issues reminds the community that police take the issue of child exploitation extremely seriously,
"Police will continue to proactively target offenders who think they can fall under the radar and exploit children in regional and rural communities.
However we need the community's help to drive down these abhorrent crimes.
The sexual exploitation of children is an insipid crime that affects whole communities. All children need to be protected, and vulnerable children need our protection even more.
I urge anyone with information relating to the sexual exploitation of an Aboriginal child to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000."
