Arrests and searches have been carried out across the country.
14 people have been arrested by the Guardia Civil from Córdoba in a new national operation against child pornography in Spain. A computer teacher and a television cameraman are among those arrested, and the Guardia Civil say that on the computers seized from the 14 people arrested and 20 more thought to be implicated in the case, more than a million images have been recovered.

El Mundo reports that the police operation remains open and that at least 39 searches have been carried out across 21 provinces of Spain. Arrests and searches have been seen in Alicante, Barcelona, Cádiz, Girona, Guipúzcoa, Murcia, Vizcaya, Sevilla, Granada, Huesca, Las Palmas, Logroño, Madrid, Málaga, Pontevedra, Tenerife, Valencia Valladolid and Zaragoza.

The operation started last February when a person from Baena ran across paedophile videos featuring a four year old when using a file-sharing program.
