ABC News reports that people found in possession of child-like sex dolls could be jailed for up to 10 years under a law change proposed by a South Australian state MP.


SA Best's Connie Bonaros has proposed a change in legislation in her state that would send people to jail for up to 10 years if they're caught with a child-like sex doll.

Ms Bonaros said child-like sex dolls which resemble young children had the potential to encourage paedophiles to commit child abuse.

She said while federal customs authorities had the power to seize the dolls, there were currently no penalties for those caught importing, selling, making or possessing them.
