The Australian police has arrested 44 men aged between 19 and 57 across the country on the suspicion of producing and possessing child pornography. The Australian Federal Police made the arrests after a year-long joint investigation with Australian Centre to Counter Child Exploitation into child abuse images and videos that were shared online. 350 other charges related to child pornography have also been slapped on the accused. During the arrests the Australian police also rescued 16 children and said that they have rescued 134 children from exploitation so far this year.
