Posted in: Child Protection&Online Safety at 11/03/2008 11:14
A suspected paedophile known as Mr Swirl because of the way he allegedly disguised his face in photographs is set to go on trial in Thailand.
Christopher Neil, a Canadian, denies charges of abusing two underage boys.
Mr Neil was arrested in Thailand in October last year after an appeal by police working for Interpol.
They had digitally reversed the swirl used to disguise a man's face on photos found on pornographic websites to create a recognisable image.
