   A Dutch court is being asked to force social media platform Facebook to reveal the maker of a fake account used to spread a sex film featuring a 21-year-old Dutch woman. The girl, named as Chantal, has also made a formal complaint to the police who are carrying out their own investigation, broadcaster Nos reports. 

However, that investigation is taking too long, say Chantal and her lawyer, and they now want the Dutch courts to force Facebook to come clean. Facebook Nederland says all the information about who opened the account has been wiped from their system. This always happens after two weeks, lawyers for Facebook told the court. 

A spokeswoman for Facebook told Nos the social media group always cooperates with the police when asked for information in connection with a criminal investigation. Chantal’s ex-boyfriend, who also features in the film, says he has no idea who put the video online and that he feels extremely sorry for the girl.

Asked why it had not been known before that the information had been wiped, the lawyer said ‘apparently, nobody checked earlier’,
