An actor and Entertainment guru, James Clarke says it is unreasonable for partners to record each other during sex.
According to him, it has become a means of business as people use contorted means to get access to a sex tape of others and extort monies from them.
Speaking in an interview, the actor described that sex is a private act therefore it should not be seen by a third party or individual.
“Per the tradition in Ghana and Africa, we frown on these kinds of things. There’s no way I will do that. Having sex should be between you and your girl, you and your wife and vice versa It’s not thought to be known or seen by a third party,” he stated.
The Entertainment guru however indicated that recording a sex tape without consent is a criminal offence. And women who find themselves as victims in such situations should report to the police for legal actions to be taken.
The Cyber Security Act 2020 says that threatening to distribute private images or videos of the other person engaged in sexually explicit conduct to harass, threaten, coerce or intimidate the person is a crime.
And exerting any undue influence on that person (in the images and video) to extort money or compel the victim to engage in any unwanted sexual activity warrants a jail sentence.
The offender is likely to go to prison for not less than one year and not more than three years. A child offender will be jailed for not less than 15 years.
Despite all these laid outlaws, some people still extort money from victims of sex tapes and mostly, women are the target.
