  1. Arrest the person who posted the video online.
    The people who are in the video were just like everyone else in this world who experiments in love making.
    They were not doing it to make money, They were seeking each others love and a reminder of it.
    The only criminal in this case is the person who STOLE it from the hard drive of Iris’s laptop and posted it CRIMINALLY online.
    Arrest them not these two experimental students.

    How many Zambians watch porn everyday?

    • Exactly the two implicated chaps had no intention of exposing the video but some lunatic friend dribbled them and hence he must also face the law for invading the privacy of the friends and stealing the content and exposing it to the world. The criminal if this affair is the friend who stole the video and not the people in the video.

    • Thousands mate. me included!! Look i’ve made a video of my girl and i. It was for the hell of it and we deleted it after about a month for fear of a leak. Those bastards that stole the video and uploaded to xvideos and other porn sites are the true criminals.

    • I agree with you 100%, the crime was the distribution not the act the couple performed to rekindle or re-ignite their sex life. The illegally aquired footage and illegal distribution of it IS THE CRIME.     

    • I agree with you 100%, the crime or crimes as it were, were theft, invasion of primacy and the illegal distribution of the footage that was privately owned material that was perhaps made to re-kindle or re-ignite their sex life. Funny thing is the real criminal is probably out there jerking off to other peoples sex tapes and redistributing it, and not one article has mentioned his name. What a justice system……….

  2. You guys who writes articles shud be serious, this one is very poorly narrated. and why have you left the guy who posted the same obscene materials.

  3. I agree. Leave the kids alone.
    Shame on the media for publishing links and encuraging the public to view the material. Police should summon the media for advertising porn.

  4. All those involved in publishing the pornographic material, including the Post, should be charged. From the information we have heard so far, it was a friend, and not Iris or her boyfriend, who exposed the porn. He, too, needs to be arrested and charged.

  5. But who is Nathan in his case. It was Nathan now its Teddy? Whats the truth? We need to know as soon as possible. Or maybe Nathan is innocent after all he just had a good time with Iris and Teddy posted the video on line. Its quite confusing. By the way which is an offence making love or watching people making love. I am sure most people do make love but is it an offence to make love. I do not see any case for Iris to answer after all making love is not an offence. If she is over 18 then thats her right to enjoy. I end here!

  6. The biggest culprit in this issue is the Post Newspaper who in their lack of wisdom published the link. The Post have been publishing obscene and objectionable material with impunity. Those that saw yesterday’s imprint of the weekend post will agree with me that there pure face sitting under tthe guise of dancing. For goodness sake, these publications are read by kids as well.

    • We all have a sound mind I bet, I can only doubt if at all all of us use it well,,,,, someone pubblicising and the other who logs in have their “right motive”,,, None can say login mu site of ponographic material is as a result of the POST NEWS PAPER……. YOUR ouwn curiosity, supported by your intention based on the material at hand has led to that…..

  7. I agree leave the girl alone she has gone through enough already! What amazes me is the way our law enforcing wings handle such issues…….the kalulushi white man who made girls sleep with hs dogs I’m sure he is free, and several other related issues have gone to sleep and why this one?
    The piece above may be confusing like we all know its Nathan and today another name is given without clearing the previous one………areas to b worked by these guys as they do their reporting

  8. Whos teddy? Ela fornication is a sin, that gal should be sori of fornication and nt the tape. And the sad note, they shouldnt be arrested for there stupidity. Bt i gues these are the consequences of fornication, it could be worse, she could or he could have contracted HIV.

  9. The question to Meembe of the Post: Do you know how many people have now become addicted and frequently visit that Site whose link you broadcasted? Its called morals, Fred, by the way, do you have any children, oh maybe thats too much, are you married? We maybe dealing with a dysfunctional social misfit who accicdentally find himself on the driving seat of a powerful media house with power to influence everything, including elections. God help Zambia.

  10. How did the police know that the video is obscene? The police must have watched the video also, so the police must be arrested for watching obscene materials!!

  11. By law, they need to be charged within 48hrs or be released. As long as they did not distribute the video and it was stolen from them, they cannot be held accountable, also the content was not hosted on any Zambian server therefore ZP have no jurisdiction and cannot prosecute for distribution of online material in Zambia. The video was shot in private and was not meant for distribution so its about the prosecutor to establish probable cause to charge for porn. The act was a natural one except digital equipment was used to capture the performance, that does not make the act illegal unless the purpose is to distribute the material. Having weighed the above, ZP are facing an embarrassing loss in court as they have insufficient evidence and also cannot prove without reasonable doubt.

  12. So if Iris and tedy/nathan posted the video in USA but being Zambians what was the police going to do??…technically UN can also summon Iris/tedy/Nathan..I’m guessing the ‘crime’ was commited on zed soil that y ZP is involved…

  13. iris  is really beeeeg. teddy/ nathan had no problems exploring her. and to those *****s who like complaining about the way articles are written, ive got two words for  you . go and masturbate you losers 

  14. ENUF WITH THE THOu shal nt judge nonsense, these are the consequences of there actions. Bt dnt send them to jail. Wats with iris breasts? That gal be aborting or too many dicks been there.

  15. I thot it was Nathan too kanshi bena Teddy.I wonder what charges the duo will be slapped with if indeed the video was made for personal consuption.Arrest the chap who stole private material and unlawful distribution not those two idolescents.

  16. Just deny the charge. And sue ZCAS for wrongful dissmisall. They cant prove you are the one on the video. I have a vedio of obama carrying an Ak47 and firing at kids at a kids party.

  17. Those are good observations you have raised Un freaking Believable, and because ZP does not investigate, those silly people will go scot-free

  18. Malawian Toyota Hilux? Since when did Malawi make Toyotas? The story should have been; thieves steal Malawian registered Toyota Hilux…

  19. police well done, these chaps have dented the corparate image of zcas. this will set as a precedence to the who would offenders. well done lusaka plice command.

  20. # 17, can you and I defend the children? I will get 1500 dollars and you will have the rest after we win the case. ca

  21. Leave them alone….just picking on kids you CAN’T manage to arrest crooks who stole billions of tax payers money….these guys need a lawyer to sort out these useless cops!!

  22. This is really taking the law too far. Those guys were just having fun and as brazil 2014 says, the one to be punished is the ill intentioned distributor of the video. It was never meant to be a porn video because 1) they did not distribute it themselves, 2) they did not ask for money in exchange. live the lads alone and send them back to school ASAP

  23. I think the ZP are missing it here. The police have concentrated on useless cases leaving out serious crimes being committed out their. This Iris Kaingu case should have died down by now. The influx of foreigners in those shanty compounds of Lusaka particularly from war tone countries like Ruanda, Somali and Congo posses a great danger to the peace and security of our country. Why don`t Zambia Police conduct clean ups in those places. I miss UNIP, it was the only party that truly had the interest of Zambians. Clean up Zambia now or we shall end up regretting. Billions of Kwacha are being buried in the farms, where are we going to? What is some one is hiding arms on his farm. Need to clean up quickly!

  24. you ka peeping tom, stop going around sneaking into peoples computers and laptops jerking off to their sex tapes…. what a perv! 

  25. Firstly,am not supporting the duo for the mistake they did,its against the law and God. But my opinion is that, the guys should be forgiven. shame is enough punishment for a person to endure. they have been through a lot. If you have been rejected before,you know what am talking about.

  26. Under which part of the Penal Code are the police persecuting this couple??? I hope they are just playing to the gallery by showing that they are doing something about pornography but that they will quietly let the two fornicators go on with their illustrious lives:)>-

  27. It is obviously political victimisation. The girl is Lozi with an MMD father and the boyfriend is Tonga, HH’s powerful region and a staunch rival of Sata and his Bemba government. These two young chaps have not done anything wrong. It is going to be small things like this that are slowly eating away at the unity of the country. To be honest, Zambia’s long term future as a unitary state is unpredictable. Sata has come in with too obvious choices and none of them are about uniting the country. His Bemba police are now going for anybody, as long as they are not Bemba. At some point, other tribes will get tired of this and that is when real trouble will start. Over time it is becoming increasingly clear that the unity of Zambia is fake and will break at the slightest provocation now.

  28. Nathan and Iris did nothing wrong, whatever s.e.x.u.a.l. escapades two consenting adults do in privacy is nobody’s business. The person the police should be pursuing is the distributor. This is just going to be another waste of time and resources for the state and if it is Mchenga who authorised the prosecution of these kids, I would not be surprised.

  29. Why re u supporting these *****s i can smell u re all from this same college called. (zcas) plz cage them and bring sanity .

  30. can they plz remove this slak advert on the right hand coner of this paper. this picture is not good for the immage of zambia. this is ponograpy

  31. Iris is just as stupid as the father kaingu is. kaingu has three wives and alot of concubins. so what do you expect from the children. the man has married all the three wives and put them in one location. i refer to the bible. solomon had many wives and he did not plase God at all with all other acts. His son david was worse as he had to sleep with woman in public. this was a sirit from their great father, that they iniherited. the same happends to Micheal kawanga kaingu who has three legally married wives with somany concubins all over the country. what do you expect of his children. its something they are fighting thir stupid father sex habits. in Mongu he has a lot of MMD girls so what do you expect from the children born from all these three wives. arrest them they are stupid.

  32. Ichi Bemba chitila ichili pamunobe mailo chili pali iwe. Sata criticised RB and he allowed his sons to under go the police porobe. its now on him. am proud of Zambians as they has the freedom and they do not fear any intimidation at all. So let Satans child all face it. he has allowed it but we know nothing gonna happend. he pushed it on Lusaka proncie MMD banda, and many people now on his sons and this is just the beggining. am saying the trueth manth thing will follow him after he leaves office, just as the trdition is in zambia today. we will continue to monitor what is happening home there. we love zambia

  33. IT’S SO MUCH UNFAIR, LEAVE THEM ALONE. THEY’VE ALREADY BEEN SUBJECTED TO A LOT. THAT KIND OF MATERIAL IP ALMOST IN EVERY HOUSE INCLUDING THE COMMISSIONER’S. START SEARCHING AND YOU WILL BE ASHAMED. PLEASE IT’S TOO MUCH FOR THEM!

  34. Advice  to male students: GIRLS ARE LIKE BEASTS,THEY`LL TAKE YOUR HEART AND TEAR IT TO PIECES. THEY`LL GET A`s AND B`s WILE YOU GET  C`s, D`s and F`s

  35. I am calling upon all the Zambians to write and call your Member of Parliament in your Constituency to legalize pornography what these two young people did was not a crime.

  36. There is Porno all over in Zambia in print and video even in some of the homes of the Police Officers and Judges (Dependants)Stop the hypocrisy Legalize Porno just like beer is Legal not everyone drinks.

  37. #2 YOU ARE THE ONLY CONTRIBUTE WHOM ARE I CAN JUSTIFIABLY SAY, YOU ARE JUSTIFIED AND IMPARTIAL IN YOUR ARGUEMENT. TRULY, THE MAIN CULPRIT(S) IS ARE THOSE WHO STOLE THE VIDEO FROM ITS SORAGE PLACE. THEY MUST B ARRESTED AND CHARGED. THE TWO YOUNG PEOPLE NEVER INTENDED TO TAKE IT OUTSIDE THEIR DOMESTIC INVIRONMENT, BUT TO KEEP IT FOR THEIR OWN PRIVTE CONSUMPTION. SO THE POLICE SHOULD MAKE AN EFFORT TO AREST THE POLUTERS.

  38. It is sad to see the police hiding behind this trivial matter to cover their poor trail of service to the zambian public. In the USA celebrities make sex tapes and get away with it. What is a sex tape? It is personal decision whether a couple decides to make one or not. I personally would not make such material but who am I to judge the guys who shoot these things. Let’s be honest with our judgements people, how many of us view porn sites on the internet daily, and yet we want to demonize these lads over a video that probably most of you have enjoyed watching for one reason or the other. We should treat some issues with integrity please. The sex tape concept came from the americas, hence we should re-educate our own people about moral values instead of demonizing our own.

  39. Pornography in itself is the greatest indicator of the moral wound existing in the history of humanity. We cannot fight this thing by pointing fingers at one another and caging young folk. We fight pornography by teaching our children in our homes about it’s side effects on the brain and on relationships. These habits are picked up by young people from their environments. I remember my first contact with porn being in my own living room where my elder sisters were busy watching this stuff. It just reminds us that we should begin to rethink our morality as adults first before we begin judging the teenagers. Our parents told us alcohol ruins the family and we’ve always kept a distance from the bottle. If only they had said the same thing about pornography we wouldn’t be debating.

  40. hi, am from kenya and has been following this iris kaingu story for the past few weeks. a few years ago we also had a quite similar incident in kenya when nude photos of a music celebrity by name of karen lucas found their way into the world wide web after her ex boyfriend posted them there. there was no police involvement but she was put through a lot of emotional agony. well, i have seen this iris/nathan/teddy video and i must say it makes karen’s nude photos look like test signals by the graphic detail and acrobatics presented. i can tell the public interest in this will take a much longer time to die out.

  41. Police Commissioner, how about FELIX MUTATI & is it NAMUGALA or SILIYA??? YOu will look very stupid if you don’t arrest them too – IT WILL ALL SEEM YOU HAVE GONE FOR THE SOFT TOUCH, defenceless kids, whilst leaving the OBVIOUS CRIMINALS, who have more to HIDE, that just having a bit of fun!!!!

  42. The youngstars just need counselling. I agree arrest whoever or whichever stupid persons posted the porno material online. They have no morals at all………… Shame on you! Capitalising on bafana sure!

  43. Arrest the people who distributed the Video, it was for personal use, these two are victims. Arrest the people who distributed the website too.

  44. No. 17, you have summed the facts. This case, just like LIATOs, will not go anywhere. An intelligent lawyer will outsmart these cops we gat here. that video was not made for public viewing. i mean, is it an offence to take pictures of your wife and put them as screen covers on your phone. further, the video was hosted on a site outside Zambia `s jurisdiction. THESE COPS are simply not up to the task. IF THERE WERE PROFESSIONAL, they could have advised their superiors that this case is a non-starter. As professionals, lets not do things becoz someone has siad so. We need to review these ARCHAIC LAWS
