POLICE are investigating the public disclosure of graphic sexual images featuring a top female celebrity.
A man, aged in his 30s, was arrested by police this morning following a complaint by the woman that she was the victim of so-called revenge porn.
Cops carried out a search of the suspect’s address and seized computer devices for examination.
Police officers took a statement from the woman.
Police said the man was arrested on suspicion of “sharing a film or photograph of a person in an intimate setting, with intent to cause alarm, distress, or humiliation, contrary to the Sexual Offences Act 2003.”
Cops carried out a raid on the suspect’s house as part of their investigation into the high-profile case.
He was taken to a local police station where he was fingerprinted, provided a DNA saliva swab and had his mugshot taken.
The man was then questioned in the presence of a solicitor.
It is understood the complainant has been informed of the development in the case.
A source close to the celebrity said: “She was absolutely mortified to see these pictures shared and took swift action.
