Interpol released this image of the suspect
Interpol has launched an appeal to help identify a man suspected of sexually abusing young boys.
The international agency has also released pictures of the unknown man found on the internet.
Interpol claims the man has been pictured in approximately 100 indecent images in a series of around 800, believed to have been taken in south-east
Asia.
The images depict the abuse of at least three boys aged between six and ten years of age.
The nationality and location of the man are currently unknown.
Interpol said in its statement that the first pictures of the man were 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," Interpol secretary general Ronald Noble said.
Last October Interpol released pictures of a suspected paedophile after distorted images of his face were unscrambled.
Christopher Neil, a 32-year-old Canadian former teacher, was arrested as a result of the appeal and will go on trial in Thailand in June.
