Celebrity sex scandal

Indonesians are grappling with their first celebrity sex-tape scandal over clips allegedly showing a much-loved pop star with two girlfriends.

Several high schools were raided for mobile phones so the offending clips could be removed.

The first six-minute video clip appears to show pop singer Nazril Irham, better known as Ariel, in bed with his girlfriend Luna Maya, a top model, actress and, up until the scandal, the face of Lux beauty soap.

The two deny it was them, saying the footage has been doctored. A second eight-minute video emerged, purportedly showing Ariel with a former girlfriend, also a well-liked model and TV presenter.
