RIO DE JANEIRO, Nov. 23 (Xinhua) -- The Brazilian Federal Police arrested Tuesday 15 people as part of a major operation against child pornography.
The operation, launched against a child pornography network, was carried out in 16 states. Some 300 police officers participated in the operation, said the police.
A total of 67 people were suspected of taking part in the child pornography network, sharing photographs and videos of sexual activities involving minors.
The Federal Police has been investigating the users of a so-called "deep web" underground internet for several years.
In 2014, the police carried out the first large operation targeting its users. The Tuesday operation was a continuation of the investigations.
