The operation, carried out by 400 officers in several Spanish provinces, resulted in the arrest of a total of 104 suspected pedophiles, according to the National Police. Among those arrested is a producer of pornographic material involving children. Police say he worked as a gardener and recorded two children of seven and fourteen years of age having sexual intercourse. He also had videos stored on his computer showing children engaging in sex. In addition to the child porn producers, those arrested include engineers, businessmen, students, unemployed, local police, gardeners and plumbers. Police seized 328 hard drives, 40 laptops, 21 desk computers, hundreds of DVDs and CDs, 13 flash drives and eight memory cards during the operation.
