Man arrested for being allegedly involved in producing, selling child pornography on dark web

The Federal Investigation Agency’s (FIA) cybercrime wing has arrested a man from Islamabad for his alleged involvement in producing child pornography. The man named Muhammad Yasir was arrested for allegedly selling child pornography on the dark web.

“He used to store objectionable content in different Google accounts to avoid legal action. The agency has also traced all the accounts of the suspect,” said an FIA official.

According to the preliminary investigation, the suspect was in contact with numerous child pornography organisations that are involved in creating and distributing child pornography on the internet and dark web. The suspect was found to have a significant volume of child pornographic content as well as multiple social media and Google accounts that were utilised to store the information.

A case has been registered against him under the Prevention Of Electronic Crimes Act (PECA).
