46 kids saved, 14 men charged in NSW, Qld, WA raids
Federal police have rescued 46 kids from the grips of their alleged abusers, including a childcare worker and a soccer coach, in one of the biggest child sexual abuse cases Australian authorities have ever cracked.
And police believe there could be more alleged abusers and victims out there.
Detectives in Queensland, NSW and Western Australia have arrested 14 men on 828 charges in what investigators have dubbed an alleged “abhorrent systemic sexual abuse” of children, some of whom were just babies.
There were 39 child victims in NSW, one in Queensland, and six in WA allegedly subjected to the production and/or sharing of child abuse material to an online network of Australian and international “peers”.
