A 39-year-old man has been taken into custody for allegedly having child pornography on his computer

The suspect was detained by the Bukit Aman CID Sexual, Women, and Child Investigations Division (D11) following a raid at his house in Klang, on Tuesday, 13 December.

"The investigation found that the suspect communicated with his child victims, as well as downloaded child pornography using social media," said the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) secretary Datuk Noorsiah Mohd Saaduddin in a statement today, 15 December.

"The police seized a computer, router, an external hard disc, and a handphone belonging to the suspect for further investigation."

The suspect is in remand for four days since yesterday, 14 December

DCP Noorsiah further explained that the arrest was possible because PDRM worked closely with the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

The case is being investigated under Section 10 of the Sexual Offenses Against Children Act 2017 and Section 292 of the Penal Code.

"We are investigating further to identify the victims involved in the case," she added.
