Aussie arrest in porn sting
The Federal Government has announced a compensation scheme for those who suffered institutional child abuse.
An Australian man who allegedly filmed himself sexually abusing children and then uploaded the videos to the internet has been arrested in the Philippines.
Authorities raided the 65-year-old man’s home in the northern Philippines, allegedly finding him uploading videos of minors to a pornographic website.
The Philippines’ National Bureau of Investigation alleges the man was running an illegal cybersex operation.
Regional director Efren Meneses said videos were being sold to computer users.
The Australian has denied committing any crime.
He has been arrested along with his partner, as well as the mother of three children who were being abused.
The three adults will be charged with child abuse, multiple rape and violation of the cybercrime law.
