Although a video is being shared on X site claiming that a pornographic video was shown in a hospital in Sri Lanka, it is not an incident in Sri Lanka.

Fact Seeker was able to observe a video being shared on the X site claiming that pornographic videos were shown in a hospital in Sri Lanka.

But the video shared in this way is not the incident that took place in Sri Lanka, it is the incident that was recorded in an African country a long time ago.

On June 6, 2021, Jeison Cardona uploaded this video on his Facebook page. Likewise, many have reported that this is the incident reported in the country of Antigua.

Someone posted this video on their X site, saying it was from Sri Lanka, and later apologized for uploading a wrong video.

Someone posted this video on their X site, saying it was from Sri Lanka, and then said they were sorry for posting a different version of the film.

Although the person who mistakenly published this video has not yet removed it from his X site, a large number of his followers are repeatedly spreading it and recording it as an incident that happened in Sri Lanka.

Therefore, Fact Seeker confirms that all the videos sharing that such a video was recorded in a hospital in Sri Lanka are false.
