Sex noises were heard during the live broadcast of the European Championship draw.
In connection with the draw held at the beginning of December, repeated moaning started to be heard from the loudspeakers of the Ebphilharmonie concert hall. The voices were also heard on Yle TV2’s live TV broadcast, which was shown in prime time in Finland.
The event attracted great attention.
More information has now emerged about what happened.
According to the Times two people played noise in the hall during the draw. According to the newspaper, the duo would have sneaked into the hall on the morning of the lottery day.
Hamburg prosecutors have launched a criminal investigation into the case and are looking for the persons in question from the recordings and the hall’s security cameras. Uefa is concerned about the security arrangements of the Germans and has stated to the organizers of the draw that the incident seen in December is in no way acceptable.
In addition to two people, a third person is also suspected to have been involved in the incident.
A social media person who makes prank videos on YouTube quickly after the draw Daniel Jarvis published a video on his social media channels with the caption “Junking the UEFA Euro 2024 draw with sex sounds”.
Jarvis has previously disrupted football broadcasts when it was discovered that he had hidden another phone in the BBC studio. During the last football season, a woman’s loud moaning could also be heard on the live broadcast of the British BBC.
Finland was drawn into the difficult D group in the EC draw, if the Huuhkajats clear their way to the Games. In March, Finland will face Wales in the further qualifiers, and with a win, Finland will face either Poland or Estonia. The opponents in group D would be France, Holland and Austria.
