Israeli pedophiles arrested

Dozens of Israelis across the country are distributing pedophilic content over the World Wide Web, so indicate reports coming from Germany and Spain via the international police organization Interpol.

These reports ultimately reached the Israeli Police Department’s Northern District Fraud Unit, who arrested four suspects in this internet pedophilia ring. The four were questioned, and quickly confessed to distributing the illicit material. “This is obviously a sick and unnatural phenomena, and whoever engages in such activities probably does so due to disturbing events in his or her past,” said Northern Fraud Unit Director, Superintendent Aharon Gal-Or.

Over the past few weeks there have been many reports of Israeli citizens distributing photos and movie of a sexual nature involving minors over the internet. “The system in place today is highly sophisticated. As soon as someone logs into the World Wide Web, a little flag pops up next to his user name indicating the country from where the illicit material is being sent,” noted Gal-Or. “That is how we can track down individuals who distribute this type of child pornography.”


Four suspects in this case were arrested Sunday after internet service providers divulged their names and addresses to police.


Two of the suspects, aged 34 and 40 respectively, are residents of Haifa. Another suspect is a 48-year-old Galilee resident, married and father to several children. A final suspect is a professional military man from the northern valley region.


“One of the suspects confessed that he was sexually abused as a child. I assume that whoever engages in such activities has a rather troubled past,” said Gal-Or. The four suspects will be arraigned Sunday.
