Sick rise of child sex dolls being sold online is letting cops catch previously unknown paedos lurking in Britain
August 2, 2017 · By Emma Lake for www.thesun.co.uk
Grotesque sex aids are being flogged for £1,000 and smuggled into the country for sick paedos to carry out their vile fantasies.
Perverts have been importing dolls to the UK prompting calls for new laws
The dolls have childlike features and outfits and often come with accessories
It is illegal to import the dolls and there are calls for laws to be made much stronger
Border forces have seized 123 dolls since March 2016 with seven people charged with importing them, including one man who was jailed last month.
Of the seven men charged with importing the dolls so far, six have also faced child porn allegations.
The dolls, often manufactured in China and Hong Kong, are a “relatively new phenomenon” in the UK with urgent calls made for their ownership and manufacture to be criminalised amid fears they could normalise paedophilia and put real kids at risk.
At present perverts are being prosecuted under import laws that prevent obscene material being brought into the country.
Asked if there should be new laws to combat the rise in child sex dolls, Hazel Stewart, of the National Crime Agency, said: “I think it’s got to be through the full range of this criminality, from manufacturer to sale, to import, to possess – the full range.
“And we need to make sure it’s future-proofed in case there is the introduction of the sexbots, the sex robots.”
