Thread: 50 children saved after police bust paedophile website: Interpol

International police group Interpol said Thursday that nine people had been arrested in Thailand, Australia and the US and 50 children had been rescued after investigators took down an online paedophilia ring.


More arrests were expected as police in nearly 60 countries pursue investigations stemming from an Interpol operation launched two years ago into a hidden “dark web” site with 63,000 users worldwide.


Fifty children were rescued following the arrests. Police are trying to identify an additional 100 in images that had been shared on the internet’s uncharted corners.


Interpol said its Operation Blackwrist began after it found material that was traced back to a subscription-based site on the dark web, where people can use encrypted software to hide behind layers of secrecy.


Dark web sites can’t be found through search engines, and users need to have the specific URL address to land on a site.


Interpol enlisted help from national agencies worldwide, with the US Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) department eventually tracking the site’s IP address, where new photos and videos were posted weekly.


The first arrests came in early 2018, when the site’s main administrator, Montri Salangam, was detained in Thailand, and another administrator, Ruecha Tokputza, was captured in Australia.



– ‘Child’s worst nightmare’ –


Salangam, whose victims included one of his nephews, was sentenced in June last year to 146 years in prison by Thai courts, while an associate, a pre-school teacher, got 36 years.
Tokputza was handed a 40-year prison term at his trial in Australia last Friday, the longest ever for child sex offences in the country.


The Australian Associated Press reported that Tokputza, 31, pleaded guilty to 50 counts of abuse of 11 babies and children — one just 15 months old — between 2011 and 2018.
“You are a child’s worst nightmare, you are every parent’s horror, you are a menace to the community,” Judge Liesl Chapman said in Adelaide.


Interpol did not identify the others arrested.


The HSI’s regional attache in Bangkok, Eric McLoughlin, said in the statement that “numerous arrests” had been made in the US. Some held “positions of public trust,” he said, and one individual was abusing his two-year-old stepbrother.


“Operation Blackwrist sends a clear message to those abusing children, producing child sexual exploitation material and sharing the images online: We see you, and you will be brought to justice,” Interpol’s Secretary General Juergen Stock said.

They really should just execute these evil creatures. Absolutely evil. Shooting or, .

The one in Oz was jailed for 28-40 years (a record apparently).

The one in Thailand got 146 years.

If anyone has a Herald Sun sub, maybe they can post the article.

I quite like the option of them living for years in terror in their respective prisons at the prospect of the guards leaving them to "slip in the shower".

I'm with you on that Harry but I reckon the sick bastards would enjoy it.

To my mind it'd be fairer to calculate the true cost of incarcerating them, then shoot them, and then give the money saved to the children whose lives they have destroyed.

Whether it's a protracted punishment as Harry advocates or a quick removal as CJ favours, as long as they are removed from society. Well done the investigators. As for the judges, I really think 40 years is a bit light.

The one in the US was made president....

But seriously there is no re-education for these deviants despite what our liberal societies would like to believe. There has been so many instances of lenient sentencing and so-called treatment only for these monsters to go right ahead and re-offend at the first opportunity... not sure what the answer is.

Life imprisonment with the occasional brutal hiding to remind them why they are there.

Why waste the money.
Shoot them.
Seriously, if the courts come to the conclusion that they should be incarcerated for more than a certain amount of time, lets say 20 years, then kill them, quickly and cheaply.
Quick clean and appropriate.

Personally I find the abuse of children, 15 months old FFS to be more abhorrent than murder.
It's sick and they only cure is extermination.

Maybe, its time to refine the laws and policies concerning punishment for child offenders. The world will be much better and safer if we get rid of the sickos.

if you believe that then things are only going to get worse

.onion sites via TOR are only a stepping stone to what the future internet will look like

if research and thinking does not go into trying to work out how to stop people from liking this sort of activity then it will only get worse and in the future it will be harder to find

I think quite the opposite. Future societies will be ruled by eugenics, surveillance and "Minority Report" style "Thought crime".

Thankfully far enough away that we can enjoy it while it lasts.

The odd thing is....
We all feel pity for the victims....
Until 20 years later when they mature into perpetrators.

I have no idea what the answer is...

The biggest impediment to a solution is the torches and pitchforks mob who apparently place their own knee jerk vitriol before child protection.

If caught bang to rights, led into a room and a receive a single bullet in the back of the head from point blank range. (Previous) Russian execution method.

They won't be doing it again.

conservative estimates put wrongful convictions at ~5%.

TBH Why not just use a hammer? Why does it HAVE to be a bullet?

Firing squad with no blindfold.
