Another Sex Clip Forwarded

A Campus sex video scandal has come back to haunt the country again after the last one at a south Delhi school in 2004 shocked the country and inspired parts of the recent Anurag Kashyap movie Dev D.

This time, a 23-year-old girl doing MBA from a prestigious B-school in Noida did a full striptease on camera for her boyfriend also from the institute who leaked the video recently to fellow students over mass-circulated e-mail.

A student, requesting anonymity, told Press the two were supposed to be married, but the girl had back out.

"The boy, whom the girl had trusted even her e-mail password with, logged in to her mail and sent it out to almost her entire contact list," said the student, among those who had received the clip.

Despite repeated calls, Press could not get the girl's version as her mobile was switched off.

"We will investigate the case. If there is substance to it, we'll take the strictest action against the person who put the video out," said a senior spokesperson for the institution.

The video shows the girl stripping to music for apparently a mobile camera which zooms in and out once or twice -- inside what seems like a regular youngster's bedroom with a laptop and a music system.

Students of the institute said the girl had complained to a teacher.

"Nobody has complained to me," the teacher said before hurriedly keeping the phone.

Psychiatrist Sanjay Chugh said this was a classic case of a girl being immature and falling prey to gross misuse of modern technology.

"When some girls fall in love, they believe the relationship is for ever. If the boy has bad intentions, he can even get her to pose for such videos. It's just so tragically foolish…what else can one say," he said.
