Detectives are on the hunt for a registered sex offender who went missing in the days before Christmas.
Convicted sex creep Django Nabelski, who has his own name tattooed on his neck, is evading Victorian police and ignoring strict reporting rules designed to protect the community from predators like him.
The 48-year-old does described as 172cm tall with a medium build, gray hair, blue eyes and an olive complexion.

He has two distinctive tattoos on his neck: on the right he has the word ‘Nari’ and on the left he has his own name ‘Django’ with a scroll underneath.
Nabelski is known to visit the Wallan, Thomastown and Cranbourne areas, but is also familiar with parts of New South Wales.
Detectives have released images of Nabelski in hopes that someone will recognize him and provide information about his whereabouts.
But police have warned anyone who sees Nabelski not to approach him and instead call triple-0 immediately.

The purpose of ‘Section 61G’ of the Sex Offenders Registration Act 2004 is to require certain offenders who commit sexual offenses to keep the police informed of their whereabouts and other personal information for a specified period.
This is done in the hope of reducing the likelihood that they will commit crimes again, facilitating the investigation and prosecution of any future crimes they may commit, and preventing registered sex offenders from working in child-related jobs.
Offenders can be registered if convicted of sexual offenses against children. This also includes the possession and transmission of child pornography.
There are many violations that lead to registration and reporting deadlines are calculated based on which violations have been committed and how many.
An offender can be registered for eight years, fifteen years or life.
It is generally considered an offense under the law for a person to publish information about a registrable offender if the person knows or reasonably should know that the publication would ‘create, promote or increase hostility towards or harassment of an identified person’.
Those found guilty of such a crime face a prison sentence of up to two years.
However, when someone goes on the run, the ‘gloves come off’, allowing publications such as Daily Mail Australia to alert the community.
Anyone with information about Nabelski is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or make a confidential report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au
