Woman to face child sex charges

A 60-year-old woman has been charged over alleged child sex offences dating back two decades ago.

The woman, who was employed as a foster carer and manager of a group home in Doubleview in 1996, allegedly was a party to a boy, who was six-years-old at the time, being sexually assaulted.

The Midvale woman has been charged with five counts of sexually penetrating a child under 13 and two counts of indecently dealing with a child under 13.

She is due to appear before the Perth Magistrates Court today.

If you are or have been a victim of sexual abuse, or if you have information about someone being abused, contact police on 131 444.
