Fears man linked to major child porn ring

A MAJOR breakthrough in the international trade in child porn images may have been made with the arrest of a man in his mid 20s, whose computer equipment was seized during a raid by detectives.

Gardaí from the National Bureau of Criminal Investigations, based in Dublin, seized computer equipment from a house in west Cork yesterday.

The seizure followed a complaint alleging that intimate pictures of two girls were taken by the man.
