A 15-year-old girl from Rhodes distributed pornographic material from her friend’s intimate encounter with her boyfriend. The 15-year-old was arrested and brought before the Rhodes investigator to provide explanations. According to information from rodiaki.gr, the incident occurred in February 2023, and a few days later, following a complaint filed by the then 13-year-old girl and her relatives, it began to concern the prosecuting authorities in our area, while a preliminary investigation was ordered.
Indeed, according to the complaint filed with the police and evidence from the investigations, the 15-year-old girl (currently) allegedly “enticed” her friend’s 16-year-old boyfriend, offering him the sum of 2,000 euros to videotape their intimate moments and give her the material.
Rhodes: 15-year-old granted extension to prepare her defense
The 15-year-old was arrested the day before yesterday morning in Rhodes by officers from the Rhodes Crime Investigation and Detection Sub-Directorate, as a forcible summons warrant was pending against her for a case of child pornography involving the use of a minor who had not completed their 15th year.
The arrested individual was referred to the investigation, where she requested and received an extension to prepare her defense and was released.
According to what has become known, this concerns the case that was reported to the Rhodes prosecuting authorities in early March 2023 and involves the videotaping of intimate moments between the 16-year-old (then 14 years old) and his then 13-year-old girlfriend (currently 15 years old). Subsequently, the videos that the young man had recorded with his mobile phone, each lasting several seconds (seven in total), were sent to the arrested 15-year-old and were allegedly shared with their classmates!
The illegal video recording allegedly took place on February 24, 2023. However, no one had noticed anything until early March, when the matter began to concern first the school environment of the minors and subsequently the prosecuting authorities.
Rhodes: Controversial video circulated at school
Specifically, during a school break, a school counselor was allegedly informed about the controversial video that had allegedly circulated among students. The school administration, the minor girl’s parents, and of course the police and juvenile prosecutor were immediately notified. As part of investigating the case, a preliminary investigation was ordered by the Rhodes Court of First Instance Prosecutor’s Office, while the minors’ mobile phones were confiscated and sent for examination to the Criminological Research Directorate.
After completing the preliminary investigation, criminal prosecution was initiated for child pornography through information systems, where the production of child pornographic material is connected to the use of a minor who has not completed their 15th year of age.
In this context, a forcible summons warrant was issued for the 15-year-old alleged to be the person who distributed the videotaped material, and thus, the day before yesterday, she was located and arrested by officers from the Rhodes Crime Investigation and Detection Sub-Directorate.
