Instant messaging app at centre of child porn case in Kitchener

A Kitchener man is facing child pornography charges, after an investigation in the Laurentian West area of that city.

Waterloo Regional Police say between October 2023 and May 2024, officers received multiple reports of an instant messaging app user uploading child pornography.

That same user then reportedly made the pornography available to others on the same platform.

Police do not mention what specific platform was used.

On Thursday, an arrest was made after a home in the Laurentian West area of Kitchener was searched.

A 34-year-old man has since been charged with possession and distribution of child pornography.
