Another South African has been arrested for possession of child-pornography. This time it’s a 59-year-old Durbanite who was working as a maintenance manager at luxury private game reserves and hotels in KwaZulu-Natal and Mpumalanga.

More specifically, Timeslive claim this guy was a “manager at an upmarket Durban beachfront hotel.”

Hmmm… so cryptic. I wonder which beach front hotel it was?

The man, who cannot be named until he pleas, allegedly used a boy he “adopted” when he was eight (he’s 21 now) to lure in teenage boys for sale to sex tourists staying at the well-known game reserves and hotels. He was bust by a neighbour who shared a WiFi network with him, when she found what she regarded as child pornography on his shared computer files and alerted the police. This comes mere weeks after all those teachers, headmasters, lawyers and businessmen were arrested in connection with an international child-porn syndicate. The police are unsure whether this guy was involved in all that, but his arrest might expose one of the country’s largest child-sex rings.

The 21-year-old man, said to have been “adopted” by the sicko who pretended to be his father, is one of the unfortunate kids to appear in the thousands of photographs which were seized by the police and is believed to have been used to recruit children for pornography.

The allegations are that he used his ‘adopted’ child, for whom he cannot provide adoption papers, to recruit other children for sexual exploitation. This case is extremely sensitive . there are so many issues to consider, including the lives of young children.

Police spokesman Captain Thulani Zwane confirmed the seizure of computers, photographs and DVDs and said the suspect had been released on R50 000 bail.
