A new case of possessing and distributing child sexual abuse material is under investigation by the police. As part of their investigation, they arrested a 42-year-old man today. The Electronic Crime Sub-Division is handling the case.
The investigation began after a tip from Europol indicated that a user of an online social networking platform had uploaded and distributed a video file depicting child sexual abuse.
Members of the Electronic Crime Sub-Division conducted examinations that verified the details of the 42-year-old suspect. A court warrant was issued for his arrest, and he was apprehended by police shortly before noon on Sunday. A tablet-type laptop computer and a mobile phone were found during a search of his residence and seized for forensic examination.
The 42-year-old man is in custody. The police are investigating charges of acquiring/possessing child pornography material, accessing child pornography material, and distributing child pornography material.
