A 24-year-old childcare worker was arrested this past Saturday after he allegedly slapped two young children while they were supposed to be resting. According to a report from the Sydney Morning Herald, the incident took place at a childcare centre in western Sydney around 1:00 PM on Thursday.
The accused, Jayendra Jung Shahi, is a Nepalese national who has been living in Australia for seven years. He now faces two counts of common assault after police reviewed CCTV footage of the event. The details from the courtroom are difficult to read, especially considering the environment where this occurred.
