paNOW Staff

Two Regina men are among 25 Canadians arrested in a sweeping international crackdown on child pornography.

Randall Steininger, 24, and Nels Lyndon Sorensen, 43, are both charged with possessing and distributing child pornography.

They are among 57 men arrested around the world as part of a massive investigation known as Project Sanctuary.  Twenty-five children, some as young as four, were rescued in the operation.

The Saskatchewan Internet Child Exploitation Unit said Wednesday that Steininger has already made his way through the courts. He pleaded guilty and was handed a two-year jail sentence.
