Photo: Krassimir Yuskesseliev
Police in the northeastern Bulgarian riverside town of Silistra have arrested a 27-year-old man allegedly involved in the production and distribution of pornographic material involving children, Bulgarian private television channel bTV reported on March 11 2010.
The suspect's house was placed under special surveillance for a month. Police apparently raided the premises on March 10, catching the man red-handed.
During the raid, the police found software containing hundreds of pornographic images of children and young boys as well as handcuffs, gas pistols, ammunition, six video cameras and batons.
The suspect in question had allegedly posed with some children while holding a knife or a pistol to their heads. Other children had allegedly been cuffed. Reportedly, he had lured children into his house and intoxicated them.
The man in question had recently been employed in a humanitarian organisation where he "lectured" on drug addiction and sex crimes.
He is currently under arrest and a case is being prepared against him.

Ref UndertheCovers; you have a very strange name. What does it mean? It sounds like you are `innured` against a childs feelings and long term damage caused by these abhorations of human kind.
Only just read the other comments and I am disgusted...... Do they not know that there are innocent victims; who are then scarred for life????
We are al damaged in different ways but sexual predators damage the most.
I realy hope that this mans `connections` here in Bulgaria are scrutinised completely. There are too many Countries that absorb these `VERMIN` predators. New EU countries with poor ommunications attract these people. (if you can call them that) They are scum - the very end of the GENE POOL, get rid of them.
He must have failed to pay off the police, who now decided that he was a danger to society and needed to be arrested. it was that or some of the major porn producers in Bulgaria found out about him and decided he was cutting in on their business, they tip off the police and since he was not paying "protection money" he gets arrested.
This all sounds rather fishy to me.
'The suspect in question had allegedly posed with some children while holding a knife or a pistol to their heads'.
That is plain weird but it sounds more like amateur dramatics than porn. I could find half a dozen TV programmes on Bulgarian TV tonight which show something similar.
There has to be something considerably more to this than what is contained in the printed story for a successful pornography case to be brought against the man.
