German authorities have arrested a 55-year-old German man accused of child sexual abuse in Pakistan. Specifically, the suspect from Hesse in central Germany allegedly incited others to commit acts of sexual abuse while frequently videotaping his encounters.
According to Hesse state police and the Darmstadt prosecutor’s office, the arrest followed investigations in Pakistan involving a group of children aged 6 to 10 years old and examination of the suspect’s online activity.

Besides the German national, two other individuals have been identified, including a Pakistani national.
