US EditionHigh Point man arrested as part of international child exploitation ring ‘764,’ DOJ says
- Prasan Nepal, 20, from High Point, and 21-year-old Leonidas Varagiannis were taken into custody in April 2025 for their alleged involvement in a criminal online group called "764," which is linked to violent activities targeting vulnerable individuals.
- The arrests followed investigations into 764, a nihilistic violent extremist group active from late 2020 to early 2025, seeking to destabilize society by exploiting vulnerable minors.
- Officials stated the men coerced victims, some as young as 13, into producing sexually explicit and violent content involving self-harm, animal cruelty, and exploitation of siblings.
- U.S. Authorities highlighted the network's use of encrypted platforms to manipulate and extort minors, with Attorney General Bondi describing it as among the most disturbing and egregious cases of online child exploitation they have faced.
- If convicted, Nepal and Varagiannis face life sentences, and experts noted removing such leaders can significantly disrupt violent extremist online child exploitation groups.
