Sex video clip under probe
|
Local forums and blogs have been buzzing with the news of Tammy, said to be a 17-year-old Nanyang Polytechnic Information Technology student who had taped a sex act with her boyfriend on her mobile phone.
According to one blog entry, the cheerleaders mobile phone was apparently stolen by a girl who was jealous of her popularity.
The thief found the 4.8MB video, uploaded it and mass e-mailed it to lecturers and other students.
According to the blog www.bexafraid.com, the couple were seen having sex in various positions in the 10-minute long video.
Other blog entries focused on the possibility of Tammy being expelled although it is believed to be unlikely that the video was shot on school grounds.
A group of hackers was also believed to have retrieved Tammys personal details from the schools database and distributed it.
Blog entries about this incident started on Thursday but bloggers noted on their sites that they didn't want to be seen as distributing pornographic material by posting the video.
In an e-mail response on Sunday, Nanyang Polytechnic said that it has yet to identify the person in the video positively as one of its students.
When asked what kind of punishment would be meted out if Tammy or the student distributing the video was found to be one of its students, the school's spokesman said the school would first investigate to find out more about the matter before coming to any decision.
The rumour that the polytechnic is looking into expelling the student is therefore untrue, it added. The Straits Times / Asia News Network
