"Child victims and witnesses are to be spared the ordeal of picking out an offender in live identity parades, under new guidelines issued today.
Instead of having to go to a police station and identify the guilty man in a line-up, youngsters will now be able to do it all by computer.
Police will be able to visit a child's school and conduct a virtual video identity parade using a laptop. "
