A school employee in his 60s is being held in custody on suspicion of aggravated online rape of children, reports Dagens Nyheter.

The more serious suspicions concern rapes of victims in the Philippines and Africa, but other countries cannot be ruled out, says Ulrika Jarnemark, group leader at the National Operational Department of the Police, to DN.

The suspected crimes - including aggravated rape of children, aggravated exploitation of children for sexual posing and child pornography crimes - are believed to have been committed over a long period of time.

The man, who was arrested on Tuesday, is employed at a school in Kalmar County.

The school has been informed about the situation. Our investigation is focused on victims abroad. But we are not ruling anything out right now - he has a sexual interest in children. The investigation is at a very early stage, says Jarnemark.
