a man suspected of rape of a minor arrested in Annecy
Tuesday 15 and Wednesday 16 November, everywhere in France, the judicial police arrested 48 people suspected of downloading and sharing child pornography. A large-scale operation led by the Central Office for the Suppression of Violence against Persons (OCRVP). The people arrested were detected thanks to the monitoring and surveillance work carried out by the authorities throughout the year to identify significant flows of child pornography content, particularly on the dark web.
Among these, we find elected officials, national education officials and others from child welfare. Among others. The youngest at 26, the oldest at 79. Their arrests occurred in Calvados, Puy-de-Dôme, Côte d’Or and even… in Haute-Savoie.
Indeed, according to our colleagues from France Info , a man was arrested in Annecy during the dragnet. He was to be tried in immediate comparison at the Bonneville court on Thursday, November 17 in the morning, but his appearance in court was canceled at the last moment. The reason: in addition to child pornography, the investigators uncovered suspicions of rape of a minor concerning him.
In the neighboring departments, two people from Drôme and Ardèche have already were arrested under this exceptional procedure. The Ardéchois was tried and sentenced to one year. The Drôme will be judged in April 2023.
