A politician from India who is currently embroiled in a gay sex scandal says heâs the target of a smear campaign.
This week, Arvind Limbavali wept before colleagues in New Delhi Legislative Assembly, claiming he was the victim of a âfake gay sex videoâ as part of a larger political effort to bring him down.
The video first began circulating on Facebook and WhatsApp about 10 days ago and allegedly features Limbavali engaging in a sex act with another man.
âIt is hard to even imagine such a situation where your family has been traumatized,â a teary-eyed Limbavali told the parliament on Monday. âOnly I know what my children are facing because of this defamatory video.â
How about we take this to the next level?

He then implied that he is the victim of some sort of conspiracy, though he didnât elaborate on who he believed was out to get him.
âPeople are taking to devious ways to stop us,â he said. âPlease order a probe.â
Another one of Limbavaliâs colleagues, KM Shivalingegowda, told the parliament that he, too, believed certain legislators were being publicly âshamedâ with fake x-rated videos.
Limbavaliâs request for a probe was denied, and he was instead instructed by the house leader not to be âso emotionalâ about everything.
The deputy police commissioner MN Anucheth, however, says two police investigations have been launched.
âEfforts are on to trace the miscreants who uploaded or circulated the alleged video on social media,â he says.

Like, did you really write “stick to being Doctors and surgeons” about a nation of one billion plus people? Like American politicians don’t fall pray to sex scandals either? I mean, come on!

Isn’t gay sex illegal in India? (Had been, then decriminalized and then recriminalized.) Of course the guy is going to deny it. Better start working to decriminalize same-sex behavior again.

Gay sex in India was decriminalized last September (9/6/2018)!
