Ex-bikie boss charged with sexual abuse of nine-year-old girl

A former high-ranking Comanchero bikie has been charged with sexually abusing a nine-year-old girl, supplying her with prohibited drugs and sexually assaulting another woman.

Ian “Clisso” Clissold, 60, has been behind bars since February, when he was arrested and charged with several historical offences related to domestic violence and child sexual abuse allegations.

A 29-year-old woman reported being sexually assaulted by the former Comanchero sergeant-at-arms between 2017 and 2021, prompting a police investigation in October last year.

As part of that investigation, police spoke with a further two women – aged 19 and 39 – who also made allegations against Clissold, a NSW Police statement read.

Police will allege Clissold sexually abused the 19-year-old when she was aged between nine and 13 and supplied her with prohibited drugs when she was aged between 11 and 13.

Police will also allege Clissold assaulted the 39-year-old woman on multiple occasions and threatened her with a firearm.

Clissold was arrested at Bathurst police station after being transported from jail on April 19.

He was charged with grooming a child under 14 years for unlawful sexual activity, three counts of aggravated indecency with a victim under 16 as an under-authority offender; two counts of supplying a prohibited drug in a small quantity to child as an adult and supplying a prohibited drug.

He was also charged with four counts of domestic violence-related common assault, possessing an unauthorised pistol, two counts of attempting to stalk/intimidate with the intent to fear or harm and domestic violence-related assault occasioning actual bodily harm.

He appeared at Penrith Local Court on Friday and is set to face court again on May 12.
