Man may seek review of DPP’s refusal to prosecute

An Irishman wanted in the US and described as “the largest facilitator of child porn in the world”, may seek a judicial review of the DPP’s decision not to prosecute him in Ireland.

Eric Eoin Marques, who is alleged to be the owner and administrator of an anonymous hosting site known as Freedom Hosting, is wanted by US authorities to face charges relating to conspiring to distribute and advertise child pornography, and advertising and distributing child pornography.

Mr Marques, aged 28, of Mountjoy Square, Dublin, has been in custody since his arrest last August.
