Greek police have arrested a 24-year-old man on charges of distributing child abuse material over the internet.

Police managed to track the man down at his home located in central Macedonia thanks to a tip-off from the US Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).

The NCMEC has been a big help to Greek authorities of late.

On Tuesday the Centre assisted police in locating a 43-year-old in Athens, who has been allegedly distributing child abuse material online.
