Sydney realtor Archie Anastasopoulos jailed for sexual assault of multiple women

·

Former Sydney eastern suburbs real estate agent Archie Anastasopoulos has been sentenced to two years and two months in jail for the sexual assault of multiple women.

According to The Daily Telegraph, 36-year-old Anastasopoulos was sentenced at Sydney’s Downing Centre Local Court after pleading guilty to two counts of sexually touching another person without consent, carrying out a sexual act with another person without their consent, exposing oneself in a public place and two counts of stalking or intimidating.

The court heard Anastasopoulos preyed on women as they exited buses on Campbell Parade at Bondi Beach Public School around 2am on three separate days in March 2023.

Anastasopoulos covered one woman’s mouth to stop her from screaming, groping her and attempting to incite intercourse merely days after he was caught on CCTV exposing and touching himself as he followed another woman.

A week later, he returned to the same spot with a third woman getting off a bus around 3.30am. CCTV caught Anastasopoulos running after the woman and groping her multiple times before pushing her against a wall as she screamed from fear she was about to be raped. Anastasopoulos covered her mouth before the woman broke free and ran home.

Anastasopoulos was arrested the following day and taken to Waverley police station.

These incidents were described by Magistrate Sean Hughes as a “predatory campaign of identifying and exploiting” young isolated women in the early hours of the morning.

Anastasopoulos’ lawyer Louis Angelovski told the court his client was under a “high level of stress” at the time and was acting “out of character.”

Anastasopoulos will be eligible for release in April next year.
