Arrested paedophile filmed sex with five-year-old son

Rome, Oct 23 (IANS/AKI) Police in eastern Italy arrested a woman paedophile and her cousin after seizing photos and videos from them that included images of the woman having sex with her five-year-old son.

The woman and her cousin were arrested in the coastal city of Pescara and are accused of sex acts with children, morally corrupting children and producing and disseminating child pornograpy, police said.

The five-year-boy and the woman's other children were taken into care on the orders of local magistrates.

The incriminating images were found on several electronic devices at the woman's home, investigators said.

Police in Val Pusteria in the northern Trento region on Wednesday arrested a 40-year-old man on child pornography charges as part of an international investigation into Internet-based child pornography rings.

Police traced the man on the Internet and seized child pornography from his home, including video clips he had made with his own mobile phone.
