Budapest, Jan. 29th, 2010

A SWAT unit of hungarian police raided the office of well known BDSM movie producers "Mood Pictures" in Budapest (Hungary) last weekend.

A woman and mother of 7 children who had been hired by "Mood Pictures" to act as a domme (for a payment of some 350 to 700 Euro) in a bdsm movie had written an anonymous letter to the police in which she complained absuse during the shooting. The woman gave her cell phone number in that letter so she had been found by the police.
The woman said that she was told to beat a bondaged sub actress with whips and canes. During that shooting the sub actress saif a "safe-word" what was agreed upon a the beginning of the shooting but the producers refused to accept the safe-word and continued to beat the woman by theirselfes.

A Budapest police spokesman told at a press conference that there had been other complaints about abuse in the past time. So the police decided to observe the "Mood Pictures" office for some time and then raided the office while a bdsm shooting was going on.
Police called the SWAT unit the spokesman said because the office had been secured heavily. The police claimed to have found drugs and pain killers in the office.

A large investigation is now under way whether there are cases in which bdsm actresses had been beaten and abused against their will during the shootings.

The police spokesman denied reports that one of the "Mood Pictures" producers might be a member of the police force himself.

ArtNoir.de staff is currently trying to get further detailed information regarding that case from the hungarian police authorities as well as a statement of the "Mood Pictures" producers.
