When the smartphone was searched officers found eight indecent images of children, aged between four and eight in their underwear.

There were also videos of a man performing a lewd act.

Alexander, of Mason Street, Colne, pleaded guilty to breaching a Sexual Offences Prevention Order, failing to comply with a Notification Requirement and making indecent images of children.

He appeared at Preston Crown Court last week and was jailed for two years.

DC Tom Dawson, from East MOSOVO, said: “Kurt Alexander has been found in possession of a mobile phone that he had not registered and that he had attempted to conceal from officers. The mobile phone contained a catalogue of images of children and disturbing video footage that further highlights his risk to children in the community.

“I hope this case and its outcome continues to send a message to any registered sex offender that we will do everything we can to identify hidden devices and ensure court prevention orders and notification requirements are adhered to ensure the public remain protected.”
