Chief Inspector of Investigation Brigade of the Judicial Police of Child Pornography Jorge Duque defended today the creation of a national database with images of abused children to allow more effective cooperation with Interpol .

The Attorney General's Office today released a brochure , in addition to " draw attention " to all the precautions in the use of Internet and technological means , advises children and young victims of crime to complain and ask for help to prosecutors and the criminal police .

" They make many disclosures and sensitization regarding the care to be taken when using the Internet , and still good, but there is this perspective of the criminal side and side protection of the judiciary and police officers who felt it important to disclose ," said the attorney General of the Republic , Joana Marques Vidal .

It also stressed that " risks have always existed " but have increased because " the use of technological means , the Internet and mobile phones is now much more intensive ."
