London, June 25 : A 33-year-old Indian-origin psychiatrist from London has been jailed for six years for helping to run a dark web site dedicated to the sexual abuse of children. Kabir Garg, who was sentenced on Friday at Woolwich Crown Court, will also be subject to a Serious Harm Prevention Order and is on the Sex Offenders Register for life, the National Crime Agency (NCA) said.

Garg pleaded guilty in January this year to eight charges, including facilitating the sexual exploitation of children, three counts each of making and distributing indecent images of children, and possession of prohibited images. 

Investigations identified Garg as one of the moderators of a site called ‘The Annex’, which had around 90,000 members worldwide and saw hundreds of links to child abuse material shared every day.
