American arrested in Philippines cybersex raid
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MANILA (Reuters) - Philippine police arrested a 39-year-old American man after raiding a "cybersex" den he was suspected of running near a former U.S. airforce base north of the capital Manila, officials said on Tuesday.
Police said Monday's raid was the 10th such operation to be raided in August as they step up their campaign against Internet pornography rings that are often run by foreigners.
The dens charge customers, mostly Western men, a few dollars to watch images of Philippine women and girls through webcam technology.
Salvador Manga, head of the region's criminal investigation team, said police found six women, including two minors, working as "models" in an Internet cafe in Angeles City operated by James Paul Kelly, an American who held a Philippine tourist visa.
Police said they were searching for Kelly's partner who was believed to be Canadian.
"They violated several Philippine laws for operating a pornographic site," Manga told reporters.
"They were not supposed to be operating any business in the country".
Catholic Church officials and non-government organisations have been raising pressure on the authorities to crack down on Web sites run by foreign pornography syndicates.
Police said an American husband and wife escaped arrest last week when they raided another Internet cafe in Angeles City.
In May, two Dutch brothers died during a shootout when police raided a cybersex den in Manila.
