Police in Hong Kong are investigating a gay porn video shot onboard a train in the city.
Clips surfaced on Twitter of two men having sex onboard a train, believed to be operating on the Tung Chung line of the Hong Kong rapid transit system.
With their clothes strewn across the empty seats of the train, the two naked men masturbate and have sex, with their faces obscured but everything else on display.
Police are investigating, but it is unclear when the videos were filmed, a spokesman for the Mass Transit Railway told the South China Morning Post.
No incident was reported prior to the since-deleted clips surfacing online.
Police investigating gay porn video for ‘disorderly conduct’
While the train appears empty in one of the videos, another shows other passengers are onboard at the far end.
“The Tsing Yi operations control centre has reported the case to police and will assist the investigation,” the Mass Transit Railway spokesman said.
Hong Kong’s police force confirmed it is investigating a report of “disorderly conduct in a public place” and “disseminating obscene and indecent articles”.
The charges carry a potential maximum sentence of seven years in prison, though no arrests appear forthcoming.
Somehow, it is not the first time this has happened
Incredibly, it’s not the first time a gay porn video has been filmed onboard a moving train.
In 2019, British porn star George Mason, known as HungYoungBrit, pleaded guilty to a charge of outraging public decency after having sex onboard the London Underground.
A court heard that Mason had engaged in sex acts with his boyfriend and a third unidentified man in full view of other travellers in July 2017, as a Northern Line train travelled from Leicester Square to London Waterloo.
Mason was fined £1,000, while his boyfriend was told to pay £170 costs and carry out a 12-month community order.
