An Aurora repairman was arrested on March 27 on suspicion of alleged sexual assault and enticement of a child, and police believe he may have more victims.
Mohamad Arab Bin Shamsur-Alam, 37, was arrested and held without bond on two counts of sexual assault of a child and two counts of enticement of a child, according to a Thursday news release from the Aurora Police Department. Police say additional counts against him are pending.
In 2023, Shamsur-Alam was working at a home as a repairman when he allegedly lured two young girls into the bathroom and sexually assaulted them, police say. According to the release, Shamsur-Alam had also assaulted the children at an earlier time while doing maintenance at the home.

Police believe Shamsur-Alam’s escalating behavior, based on his previous arrest record, means he may have more victims. Shamsur-Alam was arrested in 2019 for two counts of alleged harassment, one count of child abuse and one count of sexual contact, according to court documents. Police say he allegedly exposed his penis to one young girl and pulled down the pants of a young boy.
The sexual contact and child abuse charges were dismissed and an obscene harassment charge was amended. Shamsur-Alam was found guilty of harassment for striking, shoving or kicking. He was sentenced to 60 days in jail with 60 days credit for time served and fined about $200, according to court documents.
According to the release, Shamsur-Alam is a Rohingya immigrant who speaks numerous languages, including Burmese. Police think he may be targeting the Burmese community or other immigrant groups in Aurora.
Investigators believe Shamsur-Alam has more victims. Anyone with information should contact Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-7867 and reference case number 23-223290.
