Cam-phone Sex Scandal Reported in Saudi Arabia: July 14, 2004

"Two young men from prominent Saudi families are being probed on charges of orchestrating and filming a sexual assault on a Saudi teen-aged girl by a Nigerian driver, a high-ranking official said Tuesday. [...] the accused circulated footage of the assault through mobile phones equipped with cameras. It should be noted that camera phones are widely used in Saudi Arabia despite an official ban. [...] The phone clip shows the secondary school girl, aged 17, pleading as she is assaulted by the driver, while one of the two men, apparently her former boyfriend, hurls abuse at her."
