Australia: Pedophile Barred From Leaving Australia as Sex Tourism Law Takes Effect
New York Times – December 13, 2017
An Australian law barring registered child sex offenders from international travel had an immediate impact when it took effect on Wednesday, stopping a convicted pedophile and turning him away from Sydney Airport. The law – which government officials have called a “world first” – prevents convicted pedophiles from leaving Australia without permission from law enforcement agencies. The law is meant to keep Australian pedophiles out of Southeast Asian sex tourism markets.
