Pornography in the Maldives

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Maldives, the production, possession, sale, dissemination, distribution, or importation of pornography or pornographic material (including sex toys) is illegal.[1][2] It is considered a form of criticizing Islam.[3]

Types of publications

Print

Possession of publications containing sexually explicit images carry a 6-month jail sentence and a fine.[4] Erotic novels are not considered pornography.

Internet

Websites considered 'anti-Islamic' or 'pornographic' content are sometimes blocked by the Communications Authority of the Maldives (CAM) on the request of the Ministry of Islamic Affairs.[5] In 2015, the Prosecutor General of the Maldives, Muhuthaz Muhusin, considered blocking all pornographic websites asserting that 'viewing pornographic material may lead to criminal activities' and that accessing such content is 'against Islamic principles.'[6][7] Similar assertions were made by the Home Minister in 2016.[8] However, no such steps were taken.

As of May 2019, several pornographic websites feature in the top 50 most popular websites in the Maldives.[9]
