There has been a rapid increase in the number of videos featuring Sri Lankans on porn websites.

Leading porn websites, including paid subscription-based websites, have seen a rise in the number of videos featuring Sri Lankan couples over the past couple of years. While some videos feature Sri Lankan porn stars or content shot with the assistance of a third party, most have been recorded by the partner.

Sources said that they have also come across pornographic websites operating in SriLanka featuring Sri Lankan women.

There are fears that most of the content has been filmed and uploaded or sold to porn websites, without the consent of both or one of the partners.

Revenge porn is also seen as one of the motives for releasing videos to international websites.

Most victims refuse to come forward and make a complaint over their videos or images being published on porn websites, fearing that it will draw more attention to the videos and further tarnish their image.

Speaking to Daily Mirror, Attorneyat-law and gender practitioner Jerusha Crossette-thambiah said that it is a crime both in the Penal Code and in the Obscenities Act to sell such content.
She said that the sharer or the person who took such videos or photographs can also be prosecuted.

Jerusha Crossette-thambiah said that victims can file a complaint with the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) or directly approach the website and request for the videos to be removed. (ASHANTHI WARUNASURIYA)

Public are not aware the gravity in the increase of these sites which promote different partners having sex. Now it seems to be fun but when one is infected with HIV then it is too late to regret. Many countries especially in Africa, Western Countries, Asian countries cannot cope up with this health issue which is globally prevalent and snuffing lives. A concerted effort should be made to stem this exponentially increase otherwise the younger generation in the future beginning from schools will have to face this stigma.!!!!!!!!!!!!

This may a plan by the current government to increase the population by 2048 in order to meet the labor demand. Never know.
