Child abuse broadcast live on the Internet is a crime that is particularly widespread in the Philippines, but is spreading rapidly around the world, according to the terre des hommes children's aid organization.
The perpetrators are paid by people from other countries to sexually torture children according to their specific guidelines.
In the case now being negotiated, the chats were often in English, according to the investigating Cybercrime Central Office, based at the Bamberg Public Prosecutor's Office, and payments were made in US dollars.
