One of Nigeria’s most popular porn stars, King Tblak HOC was arrested for allegedly shooting an adult movie at a sacred shrine located in a holy forest.
The Osun State Police Command, on Monday, confirmed the arrest and arraignment of King TBlock, real name Tobiloba Jolaosho for allegedly shooting an adult movie in the Osun Osogbo grove.

King Tblak Hoc was arrested alongside four Nigerians and a Cameroonian for the alleged offence, which also included sharing the controversial video on social media.
In the controversial video, King Tblak Hoc was dressed like an Osun adherent alongside a female pornstar who went completely naked as the video progressed.
The police prosecutor, Idoko John, told the court on Monday that the pornstar and his accomplices committed the crime in an international worship ground, which could tarnish the image of the religion.
“The accused persons are being prosecuted for acting in a film which appeared on the face of it to bear a pornographic picture of young girls who were half-naked and thereafter published or sent for public consumption,” the charge sheet read.
