Child porn crackdown sees 660 arrested

Several hundred suspected paedophiles including doctors, teachers and former police officers have been arrested in the biggest ever British crackdown on obscene images of children.

The unprecedented six-month operation headed by the National Crime Agency (NCA) saw 660 people held for downloading and sharing the sickening pictures, and has already led to charges for serious sexual assault.

Those arrested included a doctor who had access to more than one million depraved pictures, was found to have met up with boys and kept sex aids and rope in the boot of his car.
