Task Force to Investigate Child Internet Pornography

Tue, 2009-11-10

A special task force has been established within the Bermuda Police Service (BPS) Child Victims Unit to conduct a comprehensive investigation into offences relating to child internet pornography. The task force is targeting all offenders and several persons have been identified, including a probationary Police Constable. The Bermuda Police Service takes this matter very seriously indeed and it will proactively pursue all opportunities to bring offenders to justice. The matter is currently under active investigation. A file will be prepared in due course and sent to the DPP. No further comment will be made regarding this matter at this time. This is to ensure that any subsequent court proceedings are not compromised or prejudiced.
