Two men caught with child porn at UK school for kids with military parents

LONDON - Two men with material featuring child porn have been caught at a school for sons and daughters of Army, Navy and RAF personnel.
One man, who is the husband of a staff member, has been arrested for allegedly having indecent images on his computer, and a 20-year-old gap year student helping to run PE classes has been cautioned.
“We are aware the spouse of a staff member has been arrested in relation to an allegation of publishing indecent photographs,” the Sun quoted the MoD as saying.
“A gap year teaching student has been cautioned for viewing and storing indecent images,” it stated.
The incident is said to have rocked the elite Duke of York’s Royal Military School in Dover, Kent, and police are also probing claims that photos may have been distributed.
“This has come as a shock and is causing great concern among parents,” a source at the 440-pupil school said.
“Some are on front-line duty risking their lives in Afghanistan so this extra worry is the last thing they need,” the source stated.
The two men have now been barred from the premises while police carry out their inquiry.
Senior MoD sources insisted none of the images are of children at the school, which was founded in 1801 and has the Duke of Kent as president. (ANI)
