In an ironic twist of fate, after an Indonesian member of parliament helped to pass one of the strictest anti-porn laws in the nation, a photographer captured an image of him watching pornography on a mobile device.

The incident occurred during a parliamentary debate concerning the construction of a new edifice to house the parliament!

Arifinto, who like Cher, only goes by one name, resigned in shame over the incident. His job had been to oversee a parliamentary commission dealing with transportation, telecommunications and rural development.

He was an ardent and outspoken supporter of the anti-porn law. A member of the Islamic Prosperous Justice Party, he claims he had inadvertently opened an email link,which led to the unfortunate images.

Alas, his viewing for more than a few uninterrupted minutes negates his explanation.

“I will continue to work for my party. I’m also going to continue to better myself, by repentance, reading the Koran and asking for guidance,” Arifinito told the press.

In almost poetic irony, if he is found guilty of downloading a pornographic movie, which the picture seems to indicate, he might find himself confronted with the same strict and unforgiving anti porn law that he himself helped to create!
