A man has been accused of binding a man he didn’t know in NSW and then repeatedly sexually assaulting him.
Police were called yesterday to a home near Armidale, in the Northern Tablelands, after reports a 33-year-old man was subjected to a violent attack “by a man not known to him”.
A 37-year-old man was arrested at a home in the nearby town of Uralla following inquiries.
