Girlfriend of Midrand child porn suspect arrested
A woman was arrested in connection with child porn and money laundering, linked to 10 million files uncovered during investigation into her boyfriend's alleged crimes.

SAPS has arrested a 25-year-old woman in Houghton, Johannesburg, the girlfriend of 35-year-old Midrand resident Darryn Wilken who was arrested last Friday for distributing and dealing in child pornography.
According to Midrand Reporter, the woman was arrested yesterday and faces charges of possession of child pornography and money laundering.
National police spokesperson Amanda van Wyk says the woman, a web designer by profession, was apprehended following an investigation by the national and Gauteng Serial and Electronic Crime Investigations (SECI) units.
“This arrest follows the takedown of her 35-year-old boyfriend, who was apprehended last week during a joint operation conducted by the SECI units in Midrand. An intensive investigation by the SECI units uncovered evidence linking the woman to criminal activities, including the possession of an estimated 10 million child pornography images and videos.”
The materials were discovered on various electronic devices seized during the operation.
Van Wyk confirmed the woman is set to appear in the Randburg Magistrate’s Court on Monday, while her boyfriend is expected to appear in the same court the next day.
Investigations into the matter are ongoing.
