"We will have carried out investigations to seek to identify the people in the footage before we release them to the public.

"We have been releasing images to local printed press but we know those who follow us can really help us in identifying suspects that will not only hold people accountable but also prevent others from becoming victims in the future."

The PSNI added that once a person has been identified, his or her image will be removed from social media.

Operation Exposure has been deployed in other policing districts thoughout Northern Ireland.
