Asylum Seeker Guilty of Sexual Assault at Bell Hotel

Hadush Kebatu, an asylum seeker from Ethiopia, was staying at the Bell Hotel in Epping when he was found guilty of two counts of sexual assault, one count of attempted sexual assault, inciting a child into sexual activity, and harassment without violence. Kebatu remained stoic as the verdict was read, showing no visible reaction to being convicted on all five counts. The incident has shocked the community and raised concerns about the safety and security of asylum seekers in temporary accommodation. Authorities are investigating the case further to ensure justice is served and adequate measures are taken to prevent similar occurrences in the future.
