Police in Spain have arrested 17 people across the country and seized computer equipment containing over one million images of a pedophile nature, the interior ministry said Friday.They are suspected of being part of a "wide-ranging and active network of people with residency in Spain who accessed and distributed these types of archives," it said in a statement.
The 17 faces charges of corruption of minors and possession of child pornography.
Over 60 police officers took part in the operation which involved searches of 18 homes.Spain has over last few years stepped up its fight against pedophilia with the use of a progam known as "Hispalis," which allows them to detect and provide names and addresses of Internet users as they are logging on to illicit websites
