Navy member accused of teen sex assault

A member of the Australian navy is accused of indecently assaulting his teenage daughter's friend after getting both girls drunk.

A member of the Australian navy has been accused of sexually assaulting his teenage daughter's friend during a boozy sleepover at his upper north shore Sydney home.

The 39-year-old allegedly served both girls pink champagne, then rubbed, groped and tongue-kissed the 15-year-old friend, all in full view of his daughter, court documents say.

The man was arrested on Friday and charged with grooming and three counts of indecent assault and on Saturday was granted bail at Parramatta Bail Court.
