They were identified following information from an Internet user in Extremadura
Three people have been arrested in Alicante province for allegedly using P2P file sharing to distribute images of child pornography over the Internet. Two of the three Spaniards under suspicion were arrested in Pedreguer and the third in Orihuela.
A fourth suspect has been identified in Badajoz, Extremadura, but has not been taken into custody.
Three property searches took place in Alicante province last week, during which officers seized 9 hard discs, a laptop computer and other items containing a number of pornographic images and videos. It’s understood from EFE that the investigation began in Badajoz last year on information from a member of the public on the video seen on the file sharing program.
