\u201cDetectives from the Sexual Crimes Squad executed a warrant at a Ringwood address on 12 October as part of an ongoing investigation into an incident in the Melbourne CBD,\u201d a police spokeswoman said on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cA 45-year-old Ringwood man was arrested at the property and interviewed by police. He was released without charge pending further enquiries.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs the investigation is ongoing and given the sensitive nature of the matter, we will not be commenting further at this time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fowles, the member for Ringwood in Melbourne\u2019s outer eastern suburbs, was forced to resign from the parliamentary Labor Party in early August at then-premier Daniel Andrews\u2019 request after his office was informed of the allegation. His office referred the matter to police.<\/p>\n

Last month, Fowles advised the lower house Speaker that he would not attend parliamentary sitting days until the conclusion of any investigation.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have not been spoken to by anyone regarding this false allegation,\u201d he said last month.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll continue to work in my electorate and make representations on behalf of my constituents, whose many messages of support I have gratefully received.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fowles has previously said he would co-operate with any process or inquiry.<\/p>\n

Victoria Police in August confirmed officers opened a formal investigation into an alleged incident in Melbourne\u2019s CBD.<\/p>\n

Fowles has been contacted.<\/p>\n
