Brit ‘paedophile’ accused of sexually abusing & pimping out girl, 14, to foreigners arrested alongside mum

A SUSPECTED British paedophile has been arrested in Columbia alongside a woman accused of pimping out her own teenage daughter.

Cops called the case "perverse" after the man was seen holding hands with the 14-year-old girl alongside her mum.

Locals tipped off police after seeing him acting strangely around the teen - who he is accused of sexually abusing.

CCTV footage published by Colombian TV station Citytv showed them walking down the street holding hands.

The girl looked to be wearing school uniform and was wearing a small rucksack.

Images of the middle-aged alleged pervert “inappropriately touching” the child inside a restaurant believed to be in Bogota were also published.

The young girl, whose face was pixelated, appeared to be kneeling by the table on the floor while the man touched her as he sat opposite her mum.

At one point the youngster was filmed reaching up for a Coca-cola on the table and taking a sip of her drink while her mother fiddled with her phone.

The Venezuelan woman was arrested in Ciudad Bolivar, a neighbourhood of Bogota in the south of the capital.

Police confirmed the man is foreign and Citytv reported him as British.

Both have been handed over to state prosecutors in Brazil and were filmed being taken away in handcuffs.

Local police chief German Gomez said the person who alerted cops to the sick goings on was part of a neighbourhood watch-style organisation.

He had been checking his cameras because he kept seeing the teenage girl, the male suspect and the youngster’s mum.

Gomez said: “He checked the cameras because this anomalous situation repeated itself over several days, in which both the mum and the foreign man are walking with the girl and entering a retail centre where he’s allegedly fondling the youngster.”

“It’s a perverse case. The foreign man was arrested for sexually abusing a girl under the age of 14."

CityTv said the suspect, who it described as British, had been in Bogota for several days and was allegedly practicing “sex tourism.”

The teenage girl has now been placed in the care of the Colombian Institute of Family Welfare.

Police are investigating whether her mum was operating a child prostitution ring in Bogota.
