Teenage Girl Undress For Her Boyfriend Live In Front Camera
The video‚ accompanied by the hashtag #Natasha‚ was first shared on Facebook‚ then distributed on Twitter and uploaded to YouTube‚ before being almost immediately deleted. In the footage‚ the girl is seen nked and msturbat1ng herself.
The director of Media Monitoring Africa‚ William Bird said that the child has civil rights that allow her to potentially sue every person who shared the video across social media platforms. He also said she should get psychological support.
“By having the video people are guilty of the crime of possession of child se_xual abuse material or child prn. If they don’t report it‚ they are guilty of an offence. The laws we have on these issue are good and anyone who violates them is guilty of serious offences‚” Bird said.
“There is extensive legislation dealing with this‚ most prominently the Film and Publications Act. We need greater awareness of sharing these videos online. The law can only do so much. It is up to all citizens to identify and then immediately report them.”
Bird said the scale of child prnography on social media was not known‚ but with the wide availability of camera-equipped cell phones‚ it was likely to continue rising.
The South African Police Service (Saps) echoed his warning. “Anyone who is in possession of the video and has distributed it can face criminal charges with a possible five years’ imprisonment‚” said national spokesperson Brigadier Vishnu Naidoo.
“If you receive this video‚ contact the nearest police station or call Crime Stop on 086 00 1011‚” he added.
Saps advised parents to learn more about their children’s cyber activities‚ including the language they use online and warn them of the risk of meeting predators online who can take advantage of them.
Parents should also become involved and establish ground rules‚ even if you respect their children’s privacy. This includes knowing their passwords and teaching them how to protect their image on the internet.
It also suggested they talk to mobile phone operators about filtering software to block inappropriate content and websites
