Paedophilia has long been an extremely horrifying uphill battle for law enforcement as well as lay people in almost every country in the world. Children aren’t safe anywhere and the worse part is that a paedophile can be someone unknown or even a family member, male or female. If we switch on the news, there is at least one story of paedophilia that airs on a loop, burning the obscene story into our brains.
Goan youth arrested for sending obscene texts to 12-year-old girls
Following a sting operation, Wolf Pack Hunters UK, an initiative that takes down paedophiles in the UK before they get to the young girls and boys they are targeting, struck again. This time it, unfortunately, involves a 30-year-old Goan man named Francisco Pereira from Southall, UK.
According to the story that broke yesterday, Wolf Pack Hunters UK laid a trap for this man after it was found he was chatting up two 12-year-old girls on a social chat platform. It was found out prior to the sting, that this man had not only chatted with these girls but even sent them obscene, sexually explicit texts and pictures too. He made plans to meet them nearby in spite of even knowing that they were underage.
If you watch the video that is being circulated by various people after checking the Wolf Pack Hunters UK Facebook page, you can see the guy being apprehended by the Hunters and detained. They ask him questions without stopping to ascertain why he is standing there and who he is planning on meeting.
Since then, the story along with the video clip has gone viral on social media on the 30th of December 2017. It shows accused confessing before the camera, and subsequently being handed over to the UK police and placed under arrest.
Catching paedophiles
Since then, the story along with the video clip has gone viral on social media on the 30th of December 2017. It shows accused confessing before the camera, and subsequently being handed over to the UK police and placed under arrest.
The Wolf Pack Hunters UK’s main target is to catch predators in online chat rooms as well as on social media chat platforms sources said. After this particular man was caught by the Hunters, he immediately started apologising and pleading with them, saying that the whole thing was a misunderstanding. He claimed to have been working for the last 3 years in the UK and didn’t want to get into any trouble. He kept asking them not to report him or get the police involved but the Hunters refused and handed him over to the authorities.

While this has happened to a son of the soil abroad, it’s clear that we need a group like the Wolf Pack Hunters here in Goa as well. The Internet and social media are so easily accessible that it’s difficult to tell if our sons and daughters are falling into similar traps. Worse still, cases that have already happened, cannot be solved since there is lack of manpower and even evidence in certain instances.
