KEEPING YOUNG PEOPLE SAFE ON ST HELENA

St Helena Police and partners within the Safeguarding Directorate work closely together to ensure young people are kept safe on St Helena in relation to Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE).

At Jamestown Magistrates Court yesterday, Thursday 12 July 2018, 18 year old male, Anelka Leo, was sentenced to a total of six months imprisonment for the offence of Unlawful Sexual Intercourse with a girl under the age of 16 years.

The Police and Safeguarding directorates would like to reassure all young people who may have been sexually harassed in any way that you can come forward and talk to them in confidence. You will be listened to and the matter taken very seriously as was demonstrated yesterday.
