A Sydney woman has been charged with producing child abuse material in relation to a novel.
New South Wales police said they began investigations in March “following reports of a fiction novel containing child abuse material”.
About 12.30pm on Friday detectives attended a home in the western Sydney suburb of Quakers Hill where they arrested a 33-year-old woman.
The police also executed a search warrant at the home, seizing several hard copies of the novel they said will be forensically examined.
The woman was charged with possessing child abuse material, disseminating child abuse material and producing child abuse material, NSW police said.
She was granted conditional bail to appear before Blacktown local court on 31 March.
