A further charge has been laid against a former catholic priest after an investigation into alleged historic child sexual abuse incidents.
It is alleged that in 1967, the man indecently assaulted a boy who was seven-years-old at the time of the offence.
The now 83-year-old man was a priest at a catholic church in Carlisle at the time.
The Subiaco man has been further charged with unlawfully and indecently assaulting a male.
He is next due to appear before the Perth Magistrates Court today.
The investigation is ongoing and detectives urge anyone with any information regarding this matter to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or make a report online at www.crimestopperswa.com.au.
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.
