09 October 2019A 43-year-old holding thousands of files, photos and videos of child pornography was arrested by the Catania Postal Police. The computer equipment was found during a search ordered by the District Attorney of the Etna capital. The investigation was initiated after the report of the US NGO National center for missing exploited children (NCMEC) at the National Center for the Contrast of Online Pornography (Cncpo) of the Postal Police of Rome on an Italian who had published on a foreign blog images of child pornography. In the seized files were found videos and photos of abuses committed even on child victims. For this reason the man was arrested in the act of crime. The provision was validated by the investigating magistrate, who ordered house arrest for the suspect. Investigations by the Catania post police are in progress on the seized material to ascertain how it was acquired and to attempt to identify the victims.
