Childlike sex doll, school uniforms and other abuse material are allegedly found at a Sydney home where two men, 37 and 40, are arrested
Two accused paedophiles have been charged after a childlike sex doll, school uniforms, and child abuse material were allegedly found at their home.
In August this year, detectives from Sutherland Shire in Sydney's south launched an investigation after receiving a tip about suspicious online purchases.
Police then raided a house in Menai on Wednesday and seized the sex doll, mobile phones, knives, a computer, and other electronic devices.

Police will allege child abuse material was stored on the computer as well as several mobile phones.
Two men – aged 40 and 37 – were arrested at the home and taken to Sutherland Police Station.
They were each charged with possessing child abuse material and refused bail to appear in Sutherland Local Court on Thursday.
Last month, a man, 26, was arrested at Sydney's Day Street Police Station and charged with possessing a child-like sex doll and two counts of possessing child abuse material.
In October, another Sydney man, was charged by the Australian Federal Police after importing 11 childlike sex dolls in air cargo shipments.
In Australia, importing childlike sex dolls carries a maximum penalty of up to 10 years’ imprisonment and/or fines up to $525,000.
Possessing a childlike sex doll attracts a maximum penalty of 15 years behind bars.
