JOHANNESBURG - A couple accused of operating a global child pornography network will be back in the Randburg Magistrates Court on Friday.
Darryn Wilken and his girlfriend Megan Moodley were arrested in January this year after being tracked down by the FBI in a global investigation.
Police discovered that the operation was taking place at Wilken's apartment in Midrand, Johannesburg.
At their previous court appearance, the matter was postponed to allow police to go through several hundred hours of pornographic footage discovered at Wilken's property.
Police also found a luxury vehicle, R600,000 in cash and high-end electronic equipment
Wilken's accomplice, Moodley, has been charged with manufacturing and distributing child pornography and money laundering.
Since their arrest, the couple has been in police custody after being denied bail.
The court previously heard how the pair made millions through their distribution of child pornography worldwide.
