 | | Subsequently, it is now a criminal offence (Sec 160 of the Criminal Justice Act 1988) to be in possession of any indecent photograph or pseudo-photograph of a child, many arrests have occurred in the UK as a result (See cases of Christopher Sharp (Bunyan 1995) and Martin Crumpton (The Electronic Telegraph 1996)). |
 | | In cases where pseudo-photographs were created (electronically edited photographic images, see sec7 (7) of the 1978 Act) the law recognised this as not constituting to child abuse and therefore not child pornography (Williams Committee Report, 1979, ¶90, ¶¶6.68). |
 | | UK laws had previously recognised child pornography as any form of child abuse where by harm was directly applied to the child in question whether it is for photographic, video or any other purposes. |
