A court in Indonesia has sentenced one of south-east Asia's best known pop stars to three-and-a-half years in prison for making and distributing sex videos on the internet.
The tapes of Nazril Irham, or Ariel as he is known, and two other celebrities, were made public last June.
He is the first celebrity to be charged under Indonesia's strict pornography law that came into effect in 2008.
Ariel denied distributing the videos, saying they had been stolen.
Ariel had made three sex videos featuring him and separately, two female celebrities.
The 29-year-old was found guilty of "giving an opportunity for others to spread, produce and prepare a pornographic video", according to the verdict.
"As a public figure, the defendant should be aware that fans might imitate his behaviour," said Judge Singgih Budi Prakoso.
He said that Ariel had done nothing to prevent the wide distribution of the videos. BBC News
