AN Australian man with prior convictions for improper dealings with children has been caught teaching English classes in Bali and will be deported, authorities say.

JOHN Peter Domenic Rigano, 65, was caught teaching English in Kuta earlier this month in a sweep by immigration officers.
In 2009, Rigano, who was then a psychiatrist, was sentenced in the Cairns District Court to nine months' jail, for indecently touching a teenage boy who was being treated for anxiety.

Bali authorities found Rigano was misusing a multiple entry visa and detained him.

He will be deported to Brisbane on Friday.

Head of Ngurah Rai Immigration Office, Mohamad Soleh, said staff at the English Now office at first told officers that no foreigners worked there.
