Netflix ordered to remove sex scene after drug trafficker complains
Netflix has been ordered to remove sex scene from one of its shows following a complaint from a drug trafficker.The streaming giant was forced to pay the drug dealer thousands of pounds over a scene in drama Cocaine Coast that depicts a sex scene between him and his wife.Laureano Oubiña, 78, who was imprisoned for drug trafficking and money laundering, successfully sued Netflix for €15,000 (£12,696) for invasion of privacy at a court in Spain.The judge presiding over the case also told Netflix that they should axe the scene, which plays during the opening moments of the series.Oubiña previously launched proceedings against Netflix upon Cocaine Coast’s release, alleging that the series caused him “moral damage.” He was seeking €1.5million (£1.26m) in damages.In 2023, Oubiña’s lawyer said: “The life of Mr Laureano Oubiña has worsened considerably since the broadcast of this series because he is portrayed as a person capable of taking the life of another, violent, sexist, a cocaine trafficker, impotent, vicious, unfaithful, a bad father, a bad husband, a brute, foolish, vengeful, an abuser of women, ignorant and a mafioso.”However, these claims were dismissed by the court.The judge said ruled that a project “inspired by reality” cannot be subject to a “demand for veracity.” They also added that the character of Oubiña in the show was not “very different” from both the image and “conduct” he presented himself.Cocaine Coast is based on the rise of drug clans in Galicia in the 1980s and 1990s.A synopsis of the show on Netflix reads: “In 1980s Galicia, Spain, a young fisherman becomes a prosperous cocaine smuggler by providing Latin American suppliers with a European entry point.”
Spain, officially the Kingdom of Spain, is a country in Southwestern Europe with some pockets of Spanish territory across the Strait of Gibraltar and the Atlantic Ocean. Its continental European territory is situated on the Iberian Peninsula. Its territory also includes two archipelagoes: the Canary Islands off the coast of Africa, and the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean Sea. The African enclaves of Ceuta, Melilla, and Peñón de Vélez de la Gomera, make Spain the only European country to have a physical border with an African country (Morocco). Several small islands in the Alboran Sea are also part of Spanish territory. The country's mainland is bordered to the south and east by the Mediterranean Sea except for a small land boundary with Gibraltar; to the north and northeast by France, Andorra, and the Bay of Biscay; and to the west and northwest by Portugal and the Atlantic Ocean.
