Army probes group sex video by queen's guards

AFP , LONDON

The British Army has launched an investigation into a group sex video allegedly made by five military bodyguards for Queen Elizabeth II, a newspaper reported yesterday.

A spokesman at the Ministry of Defense said an "incident" was being investigated, but declined to comment on the revelation in the tabloid Sun daily, which claimed it had a copy of the video showing the five having sex with a woman at an army barracks down the road from Buckingham Palace.

"An incident is being rigorously investigated," the spokesman told reporters.

The comments came after the sensationalist Sun newspaper splashed: "Queen's guards in porn shame" across its front page.

The five Life Guard troopers -- members of an elite unit of the British Army, which accompanies the queen on horseback during parades -- staged the late-night orgy at London's Hyde Park Barracks, the Sun said.

The footage was a stark contrast to the guards' usual performance, when they parade on horseback in public sporting plumed helmets and red uniforms.
