A 30-year-old Estevan man is facing child pornography charges after an investigation by the Saskatchewan Internet Child Exploitation (ICE) Unit.
In August, police received complaints that the man was making child pornography available on social media platforms.
On Wednesday, officers from the ICE Unit and the Estevan Police Service executed a search warrant at a residence where the offences were alleged to have occurred. A search found child pornography, and a cellphone and computer were seized for further forensic analysis.
The suspect was arrested and charged with possession of child pornography, transmitting child pornography and failing to comply with an order of prohibition.
He appeared in Estevan Provincial Court on Thursday and was remanded in custody. He’s to appear in Weyburn Provincial Court on Tuesday.
