Privately run Touba TV generally broadcasts religious programs, including prayer sessions, sermons from prominent imams and in-depth theological discussions.

民營「圖巴電視台」通常播放宗教節目，包括祈禱集會、知名伊瑪目講道以及深度的神學探討。

But viewers were horrified on Monday afternoon when its regular transmissions were interrupted with a hard porn movie.

但觀眾週一下午受到驚嚇，當一部寫實色情電影打斷它的例行播放。

The West African country’s media watchdog, CNRA, has demanded an explanation. "We have asked Touba TV how this unacceptable mistake could happen for almost 30 minutes," an official told Reuters.

這個西非國家的媒體監督機構「國家視聽管制委員會（CNRA）」要求解釋。一名官員告訴路透：「我們已問圖巴電視台，這個令人難以接受的錯誤，怎能發生將近30分鐘。」

In a statement, Touba TV denounced what it called "a criminal act by people with a hidden agenda." It gave no further details on the criminals or how they got access to its broadcasting unit.（Reuters）

在一份聲明中，圖巴電視台譴責這起它稱之為「遭懷有不明意圖者所做的犯罪行為」。但對於違規者，或是他們如何進到其廣播設施，它沒提供進一步細節。
