Oaxaca Opens Probe Into Telegram Ring Sharing Sexualized Images of Secondary-School Students

Authorities opened the case on their own initiative despite no formal complaints.

Overview

  • Colectivo DLR says it infiltrated a Telegram chat active for about six months, with sexualized images of adolescents shared over the past three months.
  • Prosecutors report roughly 300 members in the chat, identify 25 users who have shared images, and activists have documented at least 25 images involving dozens of victims.
  • DLR reports many uploaders are relatives—parents, step-parents, uncles or cousins—and some photos were taken in private spaces such as bathrooms and bedrooms.
  • The state attorney general’s office met with DLR on November 27, interviewed leaders at Técnica 6, Técnica 1 and Federal 2, and requested support from the cyber police.
  • DLR also flagged a Facebook group called “Las princesas de papá” with about 20,000 users, alleging possible involvement of a doctor and an on-duty police officer.
