BELGIUM – Social media has been washed with a video clip of a couple who filmed themselves having sex behind the altar inside a church.

The couple were seen appearing to have “doggy-style” intercourse behind an altar inside Sint-Michielskerk Church in the city of Bree and it caused outrage.

In the video, a naked woman is seen bending over while the man films her from behind.

He appears to be filming with one hand while the other can be seen occasionally groping the woman’s waist.

The identity of the couple is still unknown.

The church is a publicly accessible building so anyone is able to enter the church.

Reports indicatethat the police are investigating the incident as pornography in a public place and dissemination of the images.
