Aliados por la Infancia V Pushes Forward in Argentina With New Raids and Preventive Detentions

The cross-border sweep uses P2P tracing plus forensic analysis to move cases into court.

Overview

  • Salta prosecutors reported two searches this week with computers and storage devices seized, and said formal imputations are forthcoming after ICACCOPS flagged local users.
  • San Luis courts ordered preventive detention for a 37-year-old accused of distributing child abuse material after digital triage found a large cache on his phone and active sharing apps.
  • A 72-year-old in San Luis was also remanded after investigators reported more than 2,500 files, including 370 categorized as severe, with activity traced on BitTorrent and uTorrent.
  • Nationally, authorities executed more than 70 procedures in Argentina within the international operation, apprehended 22 people, and seized dozens of phones, computers and storage devices.
  • The sweep stems from NCMEC alerts and analysis on ICACCOPS and CPS to identify P2P users, with coordinated actions in about 15 countries and support from Argentine federal and provincial forces.
