A Vincentian man has been arrested Wednesday evening in connection with child sexual abuse. The man was seen in a video, with a child performing a sexual act on him.
Information circulating suggests that the man lives the community of Mesopotamia.
The Royal St. Vincent and the Grenadines Police Force (RSVGPF) in response to the circulation of the video wishes to advise the general public that it is an offence to produce, make available, distribute, procure, possess or obtain child pornography through a computer system or on a computer data storage medium under the Cybercrime Act 2016.
The RSVGPF is encouraging people to desist from sharing or storing and to delete the pornographic video of a child that is presently being circulated via various mediums. This is very damaging to the child and can affect her in the future.
According to RSVGPF failure to comply with this order may result in those responsible for the sharing of the video be dealt with according to the Cybercrime Act 2016 subsection 14 of the Laws of St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
