Detectives are seeking further information to assist with an ongoing operation into alleged child exploitation offences in the Rockhampton region between January 2019 and September 2020.
A Gracemere man was arrested in relation to offences against eight children following a search warrant executed on September 18 by the local Child Protection Investigation Unit.
Police will allege the 20-year-old man used social media to contact his victims ranging in ages from 12-15-years-old.
He has been charged with rape, unlawful carnal knowledge, possession of child exploitation material, indecent treatment of a child and using internet to procure children under 16 and is due to appear in the Rockhampton Magistrates Court on November 18.
Investigators are calling for other victims in the Capricornia District who have not come forward yet to do so and are urging anyone with information to contact police.
