Online paedophile hunter issues stark warning

Jim Gamble, the chief executive of the Child Exploitation and Online Protection (CEOP) Centre has warned paedophiles who use the Internet that they will be tracked down and brought before the courts. The warning comes as CEOP figures reveal that the number of suspects arrested during the last year has trebled to 297, with 131 children protected from abuse as a direct result. Taking a tip from the FBI, ten of these offenders who fell into the highest possible risk category were caught after details were posted on the CEOP 'most wanted' website. If further icing were needed on the CEOP cake, a recipe that is less than two years old remember, officers have also managed to infiltrate and dismantle six international paedophile rings after working with other child protection agencies.
