Bindu Pariyar awarded $7.25M judgment in revenge porn

A court in Texas, has convicted Bindu Pariyar’s ex-husband for forcing her into adultery and working as a strip-dancer.

Dallas County Court Judge Martin J Hoffman ordered Tom Randell Sewell to remove all online videos and images of Pariyar and to pay Pariyar more than $7.25 million in restitution, according to a report published in The Dallas Morning News.

But Sewell wasn’t in court when the verdict was given and didn’t respond to repeated attempts to notify him about hearings in the lawsuit against him, the newspaper added.

According to the report, he tricked her into getting breast implants, hid her passport and ordered her to work in a strip club. When she didn’t make enough money, he forced her to have sex with men and then he filmed the episodes.

After she left him, she said, he made her an unwilling porn star. Pariyar, a 27-year-old Nepali woman and Sewell, 58 were separated in 2012. Her estranged husband hounded her online and called her a prostitute in her college website, according to the report.

Sewell had previously married Bindu’s relatives twice. He had invited her to the US with assurances of education and quality life.

There are more than 2,000 Web pages with these pornographic videos or provocative images. None of them, Pariyar was quoted as saying, were posted with her permission. And she says nothing shown in the videos or pictures was done by choice.

His former attorney in the case, Brian Shaw, has not represented Sewell in months. Sewell did not respond to a request for comment, according to the newspaper.

An official at the Embassy of Nepal in Washington DC informed that they had heard about the judgment.

Bindu Pariyar, 27, has dozens of Facebook pages and thousands of web pages of her in pornographic poses, in scanty clothing and even having sex with men.

Pariyar claimed that her former husband Tom Randell Sewell began posting the 'revenge porn' after they got divorced in 2012.

Pariyar says that she had gone to the United States to support her economically unstable family. After marrying Sewell, 58, Pariyar claimed that he confiscated her passport and used various manipulation tactics, including drugging her, to get her to pose for sexualized photos, and have sex with other men for money.

After their separation in 2012, Sewell started harassing her by creating fake pages with her name and posting sexual photographs in the internet.

Last year, Pariyar had filed a lawsuit against her ex demanding that all pornographic images be taken down and asking for financial damages.

Meanwhile, her former husband Sewell says that she used him for US citizenship.
