Thousands of child pornography files on PCs: 24 suspects
Operation of the State Police to vanquish a pedophile network
24 under investigation for possession of child pornography material.
The investigation is conducted by the Catania State Police and coordinated by the Etna District Prosecutor, in collaboration with the Cyber Security Operations Center of the Postal Police.
In addition to the province of Catania, searches were also carried out in Syracuse and Ragusa, with agents who seized thousands of audio and video files.
In the sights of the investigators, a network for the exchange of images with exploited and sexually abused minors. In particular, protected by fictitious accounts, users acquired material from cloud spaces with contents concerning even very young children.
The suspects have all been reported to the judiciary, but the investigations continue to try to identify other people involved.
