POLICE have charged 11 people following raids across Greater Manchester as part of a force-wide investigation into Internet child porn.

All were arrested in the swoops which involved 50 homes. A total of 48 people, including a Bury resident, were detained by officers as part of Operation Baglan last Wednesday.

Greater Manchester Police say that 11 people have been charged with the possession of and making indecent images of children. Those not charged, including the Bury man, have been bailed pending further investigations.
