Leader of Global Violent Extremist Network '764' Pleads Guilty to Conspiracy to Sexually Exploit Minors
Guardii Analysis
Prasan Nepal, 21, known online as Trippy, pleaded guilty in federal court to conspiracy to commit sexual exploitation of a child. Nepal operated as a senior leader within 764, a nihilistic violent extremist network that engaged in coordinated efforts to exploit minors, extort vulnerable victims and inflict psychological harm as part of an organized ideology promoting chaos and societal destabilization. Court documents detailed the involvement of co-conspirators operating inside the Washington D.C. metropolitan area and multiple U.S. states, who engaged in coordinated online extortion schemes targeting minors in multiple jurisdictions both domestically and abroad.
The 764 network exemplifies the threat model Guardii was built to address: coordinated, networked offenders who operate across platforms and escalate contact from grooming to coercion to psychological abuse. Detection of sustained targeting, the shift from social overture to explicit demand, and coercive or violent language are detection triggers within Guardii's anti-grooming and anti-sextortion modules. By intercepting the pattern rather than relying on a child to recognise and report an escalating threat, Guardii enables a parent, safeguarding professional or law enforcement partner to act before a child is isolated, coerced into self-harm or drawn into an extremist network. Guardii blocks hostile contact before it reaches the target and surfaces a child in acute distress to the adult who can intervene, addressing the operational reality that many young victims do not understand they are being exploited until harm has already occurred.
