Australia’s ‘worst paedophile’ jailed for 35 years after abusing 47 boys in Singapore, Indonesia and Philippines
- Boris Kunsevitsky was described by an Australian judge as a ‘child abuser of appalling … proportions’ with an ‘insatiable’ appetite for abuse
- Most of his crimes took place in the Philippines. He also abused one boy in Indonesia, five in Singapore and one in Melbourne, Australia
An Australian paedophile who filmed and photographed himself sexually abusing 47 boys across four countries has been sentenced to 35 years in jail.
Justice John Champion described his offences as the worst he had ever seen, calling him a “child abuser of appalling … proportions” and his appetite for sexual abuse “insatiable”.
Most of his crimes took place in the Philippines. He also abused one boy in Indonesia, five in Singapore and one in Melbourne, Australia.
The photos and videos depicted children engaged in sexual activities with each other on his instructions or of Kunsevitsky abusing them.
During one trip to the Philippines in 2008 detailed by Australian prosecutors, Kunsevitsky took 71 photographs and made 13 videos of himself performing sex acts on two 13-year-olds – including while they were asleep.
More than 1,000 of the photographs or videos that were found on him were taken when he was overseas at various times between May 2010 and April 2015. He had stored the obscene material in a folder labelled “jailbait”.
In 2007, the police in Germany found 55 images he had distributed on Microsoft Office Groove – a discontinued desktop application designed for document collaboration. Most of the images were titled “Aussie01jpeg to Aussie49jpeg”.
