The Zurich District Court sentenced a man to a conditional fine and a fine in 2023 for hardcore pornography, the depiction of violence and violations of the Narcotics Act. The Federal Supreme Court has now confirmed the man's conviction by the Zurich District Court.

The man had shared a pornographic video on Instagram showing a prepubescent girl. The actress was a "pretend minor" - her video was edited using digital rejuvenation technology.

Since 2014, the Swiss Criminal Code has criminalized "non-actual" child pornography as well as actual child pornography, as the Federal Supreme Court recalled in its ruling published on Monday. "Non-actual" child pornography also includes purely virtually generated content.
