The man allegedly out with NRL star Jack de Belin on the night the NSW State of Origin representative is alleged to have sexually assaulted a woman has now also been charged.
Callan Sinclair was arrested by Wollongong Police District officers on Monday morning and taken to Wollongong Police Station for questioning.
Just a few hours later he was charged with one count of aggravated sexual assault in company and granted conditional bail to appear in Wollongong Court on February 12.
Sinclair, 21, is alleged to have been with de Belin and a 19-year-old woman in Wollongong before the trio returned to a private apartment in a taxi after they attended a Christmas pub crawl last Sunday.
According to reports, the woman has told police she went with the two men on the understanding they were going to visit another night spot.
