The authorities in Chile have arrested four people who the police say
are members of one of the world's most successful groups of computer
hackers.

The men are accused of breaching more than 8,000 websites, including
that of US space agency NASA.

One of the men, who has used the alias "Net Toxic", is alleged to be
one of the most prolific hackers in the world.

The men were detained in simultaneous raids in three cities in Chile,
including the capital Santiago.
