(KAIR)--A 27-year-old Atchison man, convicted of a violent sex crime at the age of 16, is back in jail, held for his alleged failure "to provide accurate and required information when registering as an offender with the Atchison County Sheriff's Office."

That's according to a release from Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie, which alleges Za'Heer Dayshawn Cluke violated the Kansas Offender Registration Act between December 5, 2024 and May 28, 2025, leading to his arrest this week.

According to Laurie, Cluke was taken into custody Tuesday on an Atchison County District Court warrant, issued on June 2 of this year, for the violation.

Once in custody, Cluke was booked into the Atchison County Jail.

He's held on a $35,000 surety bond.

According to MSC News archives, Cluke, in 2014, after being certified as an adult and convicted, was sentenced in Atchison County District Court to more than 5-years in prison on the charges of aggravated indecent liberties with a child and lewd and lascivious conduct.

The former charge came after a then 15-year-old Cluke, in 2013, attacked a 13-year-old female and touched her inappropriately in an Atchison park, while the latter charge stemmed from Cluke exposing himself to a female jail staff member.
