Turramurra man Alexandru Todicescu appeared before Hornsby Local Court after being charged with a series of alleged offences. He has not yet entered any pleas.

The 83-year-old faces nine charges — two counts of alleged rape, four counts of indecently assaulting a minor (aged younger than 16-years-old) and three counts of sexual assault while knowing no consent was given.

According to documents tendered to Hornsby Local Court, these allegations all date back to a two-year span during the early 1980s.

Police will allege in one instance Todicescu raped the alleged victim in a garden shed in Turramurra and — on a separate occasion — in a household.

Todicescu was apprehended by police and charged with these nine counts of alleged sexual misconduct and assault on September 18.

Since being apprehended, Todicescu has remained on bail. The matter will next return to court on November 30.
