Tue, 16 May 2017

The Island's police say the case of a man sentenced to jail for possessing indecent images of children was the largest scale enquiry of its type undertaken by the Isle of Man Constabulary.

Martin Andrew Cleator from Douglas was found to have in excess of 900,000 indecent still and moving images of children on his computer.

The Manx force worked with the National Crime Agency to investigate and detect the offences.

Cleator was sentenced to two years in prison.

Officers say they will continue to target such offenders regardless of the scale.
