Seven-time AMA Superbike Champion Mat Mladin has been arrested and accused of four child sex offences in Australia, according to an article published March 25 at DailyTelegraph.com, the online presence of Sydney, Australia’s largest newspaper.

According to author Daniel McGookin, Mladin, age 48, has been charged with sexual intercourse with a child under the age of 10, two counts of intentionally carrying out a sex act on a child under 10, and one count of intentionally inciting a child to perform a sexual act.

After a lengthy investigation, according to the article, Mladin was taken into custody on March 13 and spent several days in jail before he was released on $50,000 bail and had to surrender his passport.

The matter is being handled in Campbelltown Local Court, in New South Wales, Australia.

Mladin’s court case number is 2020/00081386.

In recent years, Mladin has returned to racing as a team owner, fielding Max Croker in the Australian Supersport and then Superbike National Championships under the Mladin Racing banner.

It appears as if Mladin has taken down his Facebook page, which was the source for some of the photos used in the DailyTelegraph.com article.
