Two members of the online cult group CVLT have been arrested after an international investigation involving police from the US, France, the UK and New Zealand, which forced children to commit violent acts. The CVLT group used intimidation and manipulation to force their victims to self-harm and commit suicide on live television. 
Police have arrested two men, aged 23 and 42, who are believed to be the leaders of the cult group. Investigators found that CVLT was active on social media platforms, online games and mobile apps, where it sought out vulnerable children using grooming tactics. Victims were forced to create dangerous material and intimidated into participating in increasingly violent acts.
The CVLT group is part of a larger criminal network called “The COM” (community), which systematically uses psychological pressure methods to control its victims. The cult spreads the ideology of neo-Nazism, pedophilia and violence and glorifies cruelty. Members of this group are known to force children to self-harm, drink their own urine, mutilate themselves and burn the name of the cult into their skin.
The arrest of these criminals has revealed to the world an even darker reality: the existence of an entire online community that promotes violence and involves children in dangerous activities. Police continue to search for other members of this criminal network and urge parents to be vigilant about their children’s online activities.
