Detectives from the Roma Child Protection Investigation Unit have charged a man with 97 online child sex offences following a two-month investigation.
Police executed a search warrant at the 31-year-old man’s residence on March 8 where they seized a number of devices allegedly containing child exploitation material.
Forensic analysis has since been conducted on the devices and identified numerous alleged online offences.
The investigation also uncovered information relating to a number of alleged online sex offenders located in the United States and further intelligence submissions have been made to the relevant authorities.
The 97 charges include more than 70 counts of grooming a child under 16 with intent to expose to indecent matter, 15 counts of using a carriage service to solicit child pornography material as well as five counts of possessing child exploitation material and one count of using the internet to procure children under 16 years.
