The man's name, nationality and location are unknown, but Interpol says he is a "white, older man. He must be between 50 and 70. We have no idea of where he is or his country of origin although he seems to come from a Western country; North America, Europe or Australia."

The man, whose name, nationality and location are unknown is featured in approximately 100 images in a series of around 800, which are believed to have been taken in Southeast Asia and depict the sexual abuse of at least three boys aged between six and 10 years old. The first pictures of the man were originally discovered by police in Norway in March 2006.

“The law enforcement community around the world has done all it can to find this man who clearly presents a danger to young children, and we are now asking the public to help identify this predator and protect other potential victims from abuse,” said INTERPOL Secretary General Ronald K. Noble.

Interpol has been receiving tips from Canada and elsewhere since launching this global appeal and are hoping to get him off the street before he sexually abuses any more children.

Anyone who believes they may have information about the man in the latest photos can contact their local police, or go to Interpol's website and report their suspicions online.
