Police say the investigation revealed conversations between a man and multiple women from another country, where the women were encouraged to sexually assault young children and send the man photos in return for payment.

The 33-year-old has also been charged with two counts of using telecommunications to commit criminal offences with someone underage.

Milne, who is from London, is expected to appear in London court Friday in relation to the charges.
