Case No. 14567Child pornography

Man jailed over drug heist sentenced for child pornography at Circuit Criminal Court

Aradi Ignac, a 50-year-old Hungarian man, appeared before the Circuit Criminal Court in a child pornography case and listened to the proceedings with an interpreter, as the court heard he has little to no English. Before this, he had been jailed for 10 years for his role in a multi-million euro drug heist, which the article mentions only as background. A Gript article published on 14 February 2025 reports in its headline that Ignac was sentenced for child pornography, but the text provided gives no sentence details. The latest development is that report of the child pornography sentence.
