It is understood the time Hayne spent at the police station on Monday night was taken up by a lengthy bail determination consideration, with independent police officers assessing his release.
The maximum penalty for the charge of aggravated assault is 20 years in jail.
Earlier this month, detectives from the Child Abuse and Sex Crimes Squad commenced an investigation into the alleged incident, after receiving reports a woman had been sexually assaulted by a man she met on social media.
A complaint about the incident was first made to the NRL Integrity Unit, before it was referred to the sex crimes squad.
Hayne has been granted strict conditional bail to appear at Burwood Local Court on Monday December 10.
It is the
second sexual assault allegationlevelled at the rugby league player, who is currently fighting a civil lawsuit in the US relating to the alleged sexual assault of a woman in San Jose in December 2015.
After mediation talks failed, the civil lawsuit was scheduled to go to trial on January 27 next year.
