Goa Congress leader thrown out of WhatsApp group for circulating porn clip

It was an embarrassing Saturday for the Goa unit of the Congress party after a party member shared a pornographic video clip on their official WhatsApp media group that comprises party leaders and members of the media.

According to an IANS report,  Goa Congress chief spokesperson Sunil Kawthankar later apologised to the media for the gaffe and removed Whatsapp member and alleged culprit Barnabe Sapeco from the group.

“It is a very serious issue. The erring member has been removed from the group. As an admin, I apologise to all members for this act of one of the members on the group. Such irresponsible act is highly objectionable and cannot be tolerated,” Kawthankar said.

Sapeco, a former state Congress general secretary, said, “It happened by accident. It was sent to me by someone. It must have been posted on the WhatsApp group accidentally. I apologise for the inconvenience.”
