Following by the Hong Kong artist- Edison Chan’s storm in a teacup, here comes another similar case happened at Bandung, Indonesia. The Indonesia pop singer, Nazril ''Ariel'' Irham has been sentenced to three and a half years in jail and and fined him $25,000 under a controversial pornography law.
Police said earlier a friend of Irham's had taken the sex tape off his computer and posted it on the Internet. Irham denied it was him on the tape. He surrendered to the police on 22nd of June last year but authorities have not charge his celebrity girlfriends, Luna Maya and Cut Tari.
The 6-8 minutes long sex tapes of him with his celebrity girlfriends, spread wildly on the internet and in a case that led to a wide crackdown on Internet porn in the country and after this, it was exclaimed that at least 32 artists was involved as well. Most of them are artists and some are celebrities but apparently that it has more women involved compare to the Hong Kong Artist last time.
This scandal has been a tremendous shock to Indonesian and bringing the big and negative impact to this conservative Muslim country of Indonesia. A 33 years old woman stated that:” I have 3 daughters. Therefore, I think that porn is even more harmful than drugs for me.”
In my opinion, Irham as a public figure, I think he should know that how he acts will actually affects some of the people, especially his Fans to mimic his behavior. Therefore, he should have behaved himself and never decrease the social values and image.
