A senior constable has become the second Victoria Police officer charged with multiple counts of sexual assault in less than a week.

The officer, from the Southern Metro Region, has been suspended following a Professional Standards investigation of an incident in December last year.

A police statement, which provides no detail of the alleged offending, said the senior constable would face court at a later date.

It comes just days after another senior officer was charged in an unrelated matter over allegations of sexual assault and exposing himself in public.
