Pornographic videos were left playing from a large interactive panel in Buġibba, meant to be used by lost tourists.

Residents contacted by this newspaper said the security settings on a large panel, close to the Bugibba Square had been bypassed by a group of youths who were seen watching the videos in broad daylight.

The videos were left playing on a loop to the bemusement of holidaymakers, hoping to find directions and information on the locality.

Five of the large panels were installed along the seafront of the popular tourist destination by the local council last month.

A local council member told timesofmalta.com that the contractor responsible for the installation of the panels was immediately called to install a more comprehensive security system.
