Australian Bar Owner Pleads Guilty to Child Sex Abuse Charges

A Siem Reap bar owner labeled a “person of interest” in the disappearance of three siblings in South Australia has pleaded guilty in a separate case to 10 counts of sex abuse involving several children, court records show.

Anthony Munro, 71, the owner of the Station Wine Bar in Siem Reap City, returned to his home country in June after being contacted by the Australian Embassy regarding the charges, according to the bar’s acting manager, Keo Piseth.

“He realized that he had made mistakes,” Mr. Piseth said last month.

“He went because…his embassy contacted him,” he said, adding that Mr. Munro had lived in Cambodia for at least six years.

During a court hearing on August 4, requested by Mr. Munro, he confessed to sexually abusing multiple victims in South Australia’s Kangaroo Island, Rapid Bay and the Glenelg suburb between 1965 and 1983, records from the Adelaide Magistrates Court show.

Mr. Munro’s bail conditions were revised the same day to allow him to travel to the island state of Tasmania between August 21 and September 26 for unspecified purposes. His next hearing is scheduled for October 11.

Mr. Munro is also under investigation by South Australian police probing the 1966 abduction of Grant, Arnna and Jane Beaumont, aged 4 to 9, from a beach in Adelaide, according to Australian media. His alleged role in the case is unclear.

In 1992, Mr. Munro was convicted over a 1990 indecent assault case and sentenced to seven months in prison, the court records show. The age of the victim was not given.

South Australian police declined to provide details about that case, but suggested the victim was a minor. Due to “strict privacy principles in South Australia and legislation surrounding child sex offenders, this is not information police are able to provide,” they said in an email.

UPDATE: Not much new really.
Revealed: Millionaire ladyboy bar owner and child sex offender Tony Munro questioned in 1966 Beaumont children mystery
October 13, 201610:50pm
The Cambodia Daily reported that in Siem Reap, Munro is under investigation by police and child protection group Action Pour Les Enfants (APLE) for allegedly abusing two boys.

APLE’s country director, Samleang Seila, said Munro also volunteered at multiple orphanages in the Siem Reap province.

But since his return to Australia, the investigation has slowed.

At the Station Bar in Siem Reap, the acting manager Keo Piseth told the Cambodia Daily that Munro had returned to face trial in Australia “because he realised he had made mistakes”.

“He told me on a few occasions … that he didn’t want to feel regret again and again,” he said. “That’s why he tried to clean himself to make himself better. He made mistakes 30 to 40 years ago.”

Anthony Alan Munro will appear at a pre-sentence arraignment in Adelaide District Court on December 9.

Another article about Tony Munro came out today and I've been told he's being held in the Maximum Security Remand Center in Adelaide until his December 9 court date.

Sounds like he is fucked, I hope so.

Tony Munro is behind bars and awaiting sentencing in February. Good riddance.

Fifty years after committing sickening sex crimes against two young boys, a notorious paedophile, who was once questioned over the disappearance of the Beaumont children, is now behind bars.

There was a trial? Evidence? Witnesses? Or what?

We await details breathlessly!

Given the time between his arrest and this finding of guilt I'd say he pled guilty. The courts are too backlogged to have had a trial so quickly.

He was 21 or so when these crime(s) were committed. Not even sure what those crimes are so i presume that will be argued for leniency. Maybe a year or two. In that time, the police will scramble to find something else to charge him with.

It is interesting that every second press report has the line "... linked to the disappearance
of the Beaumont children ..." even when there is sweet eff all evidence to make such a
link.

Instead, we are hold obliquely of "sickening" - but presumably non-lethal - crimes committed 51 years ago.

Sounds like he is fucked, I hope so.

well put

The tale smells fishy ...

A bloke doing okay financially (we assume) in SR is racked with guilt about some non-injurious hanky-panky he thinks he remembers
doing over half a century ago and voluntarily returns to his homeland to fling himself on the mercy of the courts and the media -

Write the headlines for yourselves ...

HORRIBLE OLD QUEER CONFESSES TO VILE PEDOCRIMES !

CHEMICAL CASTRATION NOW - THEN LOCK HIM UP FOREVER ! OZZIE MUMS DEMAND

HANGING'S TOO GOOD FOR HIM! SENATORS HOWL
