Illicit Activities - Internet abuse suspect taken into custody at 45 years old.
The Cybercrime Center at the General Prosecutor's Office has been handling cases of crimes against children since the start of the year. According to Justice Minister Marion Gentges of the CDU, this particular suspect is accused of instructing others to abuse children. "These crimes are among the most repulsive and despicable," she stated during a visit to Karlsruhe.
It is believed that this individual had been encouraging a 17-year-old girl from Asia to send him explicit images of herself in exchange for money. The suspicions also include the suspicion that he acquired child and youth pornographic stories and violated the highest level of privacy and personal rights through image recordings.
Investigators are also examining a 55-year-old man from the Reutlingen area, who is accused of being a client of the platform. Search warrants have been executed at the homes of these two individuals, and the evidence gathered will now be analyzed.
