Authorities in Austria say they have questioned 107 suspects in two major international child pornography investigations.

The probe has focused on the financing of networks dealing in illicit photos and videos.

Austria’s Federal Criminal Investigations Bureau said today the “intensive questioning” of the suspects, whose names were not released, was done in conjunction with police in Germany and the United States.

Investigators said they also seized pornographic materials that included disturbing images of a 12-year-old girl and a 10-year-old Asian girl.

They said the top Austrian suspect was a 44-year-old man whose home computer allegedly contained images of him sexually abusing a 10-year-old.
