Intimate image abuse can also be referred to as ‘revenge porn’, non-consensual pornography or image-based sexual abuse.
It is the act of sharing intimate images or videos of someone, either on or offline, without their consent with the intention of causing distress.
Based on UU No. 44 of 2008 (Pornography) made it, ‘an offence for a person to disclose a private sexual photograph or film if the disclosure is made without the consent of an individual who appears in the photograph or film, and with the intention of causing that individual distress’.
