Dear all,

This petition is an urgent request from the two girls shown in a porn video to have it removed. Broadcasted on the website against their wills, the consequences of the video on the girls are catastrophic. In a conservative society such as the Egyptian one, identified individuals in sex videos suffer from drastic consequences especially in the case of this video showing a famous Egyptian director and a member in the Egyptian parliament, Khaled Youssef. This video was leaked as an attempt to blackmail him for political reasons.

For the girls in the video, the situation is unbearable; they were fired from their works, abandoned by their families and/or partners and most of all they are now held in detention! We’re against the abuse of these two girls’ privacy in this political situation. In addition to the violation of their privacy, the girls are now in danger as this situation turned into a public issue with the video being shared by thousands on social media. This kind of situation can lead to honor crimes and the girls will likely be jailed for adultery, while the director managed to escape.

In the name of the two girls and all their close ones, who were affected by the broadcast of this video, we demand its immediate removal. For a further read about the situation of the two girls, kindly refer to the following links:
