A New Zealander arrested in Australia during August for a string of alleged sexual assaults is expected to be charged over a further 11 attacks on women in Sydney's east and inner west.
The 22-year-old New Zealand man, who has not yet been named, is expected to face charges over
the alleged robbery, assault or sexual assault of 15 women between February and August this year, the Sydney Morning Herald reported.
Police arrested him at a timberyard in the Sydney suburb of Lilyfield on August 25.
The New Zealander, who was then living at Rosebery, was charged over attacks on four women in Glebe, Rose Bay, Mona Vale and Woollahra and was refused bail.
But investigators from Strike Force Waran are expected to lay a further 12 charges against the man relating to alleged attacks on another 11 women during the same period.
One of the alleged attacks was the indecent assault of a 16-year-old girl at Randwick in August.
The man also faces another four counts of indecent assault, one count of aggravated sexual assault, three counts of inflicting actual bodily harm with intent to commit sexual assault, one count of unlawful entry, one count of reckless wounding and one count of threatening to inflict actual bodily harm with intent to have sexual intercourse.
NSW police said their investigations were continuing.
