Subscriber only A CONVICTED paedophile once described by a Cairns magistrate as a serious, serious danger to any child is back behind bars for breaching his supervision order less than two weeks after being released. Rowland Watt, 34, has convictions for child sex offences dating back to 2006 - predominantly in Townsville and Cairns - convicted of indecent treatment of a child 10 times and failed to comply with reporting condition 13 times. He was released from custody earlier this month, on a decade long supervision order after his jail sentence finished on May 9. But the Cairns Post understands a warrant had to be issued for his arrest this week after he breached the order and he was taken into custody again on Thursday.
