Fugitive child pornography suspect nabbed after 6-month hunt

Hiding from the law since December, a food delivery executive facing child pornography charges has finally been arrested, police said.

Purushotham, 40, was recently picked up from his Begur house by the Southeast CEN Crime police in what was a culmination of a months-long manhunt.

According to police, Purushotham had gone into hiding six months ago after learning about a case registered against him.

He is accused of uploading child pornographic videos online. Police also believe he indulged in sex chats on Facebook with women from India as well as abroad. He allegedly sent them pornographic photos and videos downloaded from the internet.
