Migrant children in Malta enticed to porn ring
Two men have been arrested by the Italian police for selling child porn material which also showed migrant children in Malta, the Italian media has reported.
The two, a 65-year-old businessman from Firenze and a 51-year-old former teacher from Venezia, are alleged to have sold porn pictures over the Internet to clients in Europe and the US. 166 financial transactions were noted.
The police operation, coordinated by the authorities in Firenze and Siracusa, found that the children were between 13 and 16 years old. They were given phone cards, mobile phones, clothes and other gifts in exchange for performing lewd acts.
Most of the children were photographed in Tunisia, Romania and Malta, as well as in Italy.

Dear Police Commissioner,
Do not take notice of what FF have said about you.
Please investigate.
Not only minors should be protected but also our young people and adults.
Responsable countries all over the world are using all electronic means available to crush these criminals of humanity.

Dear Police Commissioner,
Thank you for what the Malta Police Force is doing to defend minors.
But are you aware that pedophiliac material is being channelled in our homes on the internet by a famous sex website which at the moment is seeking a purchaser.
We all need protection.
In this day and age we have the electronic means to crush these criminals.
Please investigate and intervene with the help of Europe.

I have no clue what you are on about. But don't expect any Police Commissioner to take action. YOU should be the Policeman within your household - as you said, there are electronic means of protecting your minors; buy the software and get on with life.

I,m sure our local branch of the UNHCR and NGOS will soon prove the Italians wrong.
True we give the immigrants money,mobiles,clothes and some other gifts but thats about all.I hope.

NGOs whose scope is to help people who try to force a state to give them benefits - whether they deserve them or not - at the expense of the host country's taxpayers

very serious, and unfounded, allegations.
