Australian authorities have reported a "disturbing rise" in attempts to import child-like sex dolls. Retailers Temu and Shein are offering torsos and disembodied heads disguised as mannequins, which are believed to exploit legal loopholes.

This increase in import attempts has raised significant concerns among law enforcement and child protection advocates. The dolls, which resemble children, have sparked outrage and calls for stricter regulations on their sale and importation.

Authorities are currently investigating the practices of these retailers and the implications of their products on child safety. The situation highlights ongoing issues related to child exploitation and the need for comprehensive legal frameworks to address such matters.
