Big Police Raid Nets 200 Obscene,
Sadistic Films In Brunei
By Dk Suria Rina PHA
Bandar Seri
Begawan - Berakas police swooping on obscene VCD sellers
operating in a shop at Kg Sungai Hanching and confiscated over 200
videos warned the public against purchasing such illegal material.
This was the biggest "catch" police
landed in recent times.
DCO
Yakub of Berakas Police leading the raid on a tip off by the public on
December 31 said all the seized items would be sent to the censor
board to be categorised and then destroyed accordingly.
He said besides obscene videos, the
police are also on the trail of sadistic ‘Acts of Violence’ movies,
which will also be confiscated and destroyed.
The public was put on high alert and
was instructed to inform the nearest police station if they have any
information on such operations.
The raid, which also had the
assistance of the CID successfully, combed the suspected areas before
moving into the Sg Hanching where they discovered hoards of Filipino
and Thai X-rated VCDs and DVDs.
According to the Police, the local
cashieres who worked at the premises were well aware of the illegal
operation. The errant VCDs and DVDs were disguised as normal movies
with innocent covers with little indication to show what they
contained.
Only a small indication in a form of
a small label indicated to those interested what the videos contained.
Warning the public DCO Yakob further
said such obscene movies, while being against the rules and
regulations of this country, will also corrupt our younger generation
and lead them to try out immoral activities. Sadistic violent movies
will on the other hand encourage violence and promote little regard to
human life.
