Police Smash Global Web Paedophile Ring

Via The Guardian Unlimited (UK).

Police have smashed a global internet paedophile ring with more than 700 suspects worldwide, a British law enforcement agency said today.

The Child Exploitation and Online Protection (Ceop) centre said about 200 of the suspects are based in the UK, and 31 children have been rescued from abuse.

The paedophiles used an internet chatroom called Kids the Light of Our Lives to swap photos and videos of children being subjected to horrific sexual abuse.

The past 10 months of the huge police investigation has involved agencies from 35 countries around the world.
