A 16-year-old boy residing near Papanasam, was arrested for sharing child porn on Facebook, using his father’s phone. The police have taken the boy’s father into custody as well.
Riyas Ahmed (45) and his son have been arrested by the police after a special force had begun investigating the case of offenses against women on social media platforms. While the investigation was on-going, they had stumbled upon this profile which was actively used to share pornographic images of children.
