BLUE FILM IN BUS: DRIVER AND CONDUCTOR ARRESTED

Driver and conductor arrested ....
for showing blue film to passengers in bus

      There are plenty of LED TVs in buses now. Though passengers like it or not, it has become a fashion now to play various videos to dispel the loneliness inside the bus. A driver and a conductor in a Aralaganwila private bus was taken into custody yesterday for playing a video which contained obscene material, in public. The incident had taken place when the bus was plying from Kaduwela to Aralaganwila.

     It was reported that the video was played by the driver at a time when the bus was full of passengers and it was realised that the video was played on purpose because even though the passengers brought this to the notice of those responsible it was being played continuously.



    A passenger in the bus had called the 119 and subsequently 2 mobile police officers on patrol attached to Aralaganwila police had stopped the bus and taken both the driver and the conductor of the bus into custody. What the driver and conductor told was that it was a music DVD  video that was so played and that they were not aware that it contained video clips of an obscene nature.

    The public however complained that these obscene videos were played after knowing the times when young females were going in the bus.

   Further investigations are being conducted regarding the incident.
