Secret apartment and hidden cameras expose pedophile network

A network of convicted pedophiles has been uncovered in Estonia, reportedly targeting families with children and establishing an apartment equipped with hidden cameras.

In other significant domestic news, a youth vigilante action in Tallinn escalated into severe violence. Questions about security have arisen after an Express journalist managed to enter the Superministry unnoticed for an hour, observing and overhearing top officials.
