The Anambra State Police Command has arrested a 36-year-old lady identified as Anulika Onyeanusia, over an alleged case of child p@rn@grap#y in Onitsha, Anambra State.
The command, in a statement released, said it received a disturbing video of the suspect allegedly using a s#x toy on a min@r. The suspect is alleged to have used her daughter to make ad@lt cont%nt that generates her income online.
Confirming her arrest to newsmen, the command’s spokesperson, SP Tochukwu Ikenga, said the operation also led to the rescue of four children, aged 2, 3, 6 and 9 years respectively, as well as the recovery of s#x toys and other items relevant to the ongoing investigation.
Ikenga said the suspect is currently in police custody as the command intensifies its investigation into the circumstances surrounding the alleged offence and the possible involvement of other persons.
The police image-maker said the suspect’s husband is also being interrogated to determine whether he has any connection to the alleged offence.
Ikenga said the state Commissioner of Police, CP Nnanna Oji Ama, is deeply disturbed by the alleged act, describing it as unacceptable, particularly because it involves the exploitation and abuse of children who are incapable of protecting themselves. He has therefore directed a thorough and professional investigation while ensuring that the rescued children receive appropriate care and protection.
The suspect, however, claims the circulating videos are AI-generated.
