A MAN from Braintree has been arrested on suspicion of having indecent pictures of children.

The 24-year-old had his computer taken away by police and he is currently on bail whilst the investigation continues.

The Essex Police Online Investigation Team used a warrant to search his house.

He was arrested last Wednesday alongside two other men.

Another man was arrested on Tuesday.

Detective Inspector Paul Lopez said: "We are becoming increasingly sophisticated in identifying offenders and we will always take positive action in investigating these cases as we have done over the last week.

“At the end of each image is a child victim and we will not tolerate this behaviour in our communities."
