Police have charged a Saskatoon man with a total of seven child pornography offences.
The Saskatchewan Internet Child Exploitation (ICE) unit said the charges stem from complaints they received about three separate user profiles sharing child pornography through popular social media applications.
The same person was associated with all three profiles, according to investigators.
