BY Dinitha Rathnayake  Sri Lanka Police is to conduct special investigations on people who circulate video clips or photos of child pornography, with a staggering 17,629 such video clips and photographs being uploaded to cyberspace from laptops, desktops, mobile phones, and tabs in Sri Lanka from 17 June to 28 July 2021.  Police Media Spokesman Senior Deputy Inspector General (SDIG) of Police Ajith Rohana said that the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) and the Police Children and Women's Bureau are jointly conducting a special investigation into the criminal activities involving children.  “Especially, circulating child pornographic video clips and photos is a punishable offence under the law. We have deployed special police teams to trace those criminals who upload them and also to trace those who share such pornographic material with various parties.”  A special unit, the National Centre for Missing and Exploited Children, was established at the Police Children and Women Bureau in Colombo last month in order to monitor the pornographic video clips and photos related to children.  Rohana added that the Police are engaged in patrolling the cyberspace continuously to monitor pornography-related incidents. In addition, modern technology has been utilised to identify the persons or parties that upload video clips and photos related to child pornography.
