Indonesian Muslim Group Criticizes Japanese Porn Star Invite

Detik.com reported that Muslim leader and organization on Friday, criticized an Indonesian production company for inviting a Japanese adult video star to appear in its new movie.

Indonesian media reported that porn star Maria Ozawa, also famously known as Miyabi, was to visit Indonesia next month for the shooting of a movie titled “Menculik Miyabi” (“Kidnapping Miyabi”) to be produced by Jakarta-based Maxima Pictures. “I suggest they didn't use the porn star, even if the movie is not pornographic,” said Amidhan, the chairman of the Indonesian Council of Muslim Scholars, quoted as saying by the Detik.com news portal. Amidhan also said it could give Indonesia a bad image for inviting a porn star. "It is as if there were no other stars at home," said Amidhan. In the script, the character played by Ozawa is kidnapped while visiting Jakarta by three Indonesian university students who are infatuated with her.
