“We have learnt that Cloud storage is being used by the accused in distribution of child sexual abuse material. We got inputs and developed it on our own. We located their hideouts based on technical surveillance and raids are underway,” the sources said.
The operation has been named ‘Operation MeghChakra’.
The sources said the ongoing operation was a follow up of raids which were conducted in November 2021 in connection with the same crime.
At the time, it was named ‘Operation Carbon’.
The international co-operation channels have been used by the federal probe agency to unearth the entire network of accused who are distributing child porn online.
