Nine people aged between 35 and 48 have been arrested in special police operations by the Directorate General for Combating Organised Crime against sexual exploitation of children.

Two of those arrested had used false identities to contact young people over the internet, pretending to be close to their age. After gaining the minors' trust, they manipulated them into participating in pornographic acts. The other men arrested shared child pornography in closed groups and used the resources of peer-to-peer networks to download child sexual abuse materials for subsequent exchange with sexual abusers around the world.

Numerous computer systems, laptops, video cameras and other media containing a vast amount of child sexual abuse material of both sexes were seized from the homes of those arrested.

Last year the National Centre for Safe Internet Hotline received over 46,300 reports, 95% of which were of online child sexual exploitation.
