Malaysian police have seized a batch of mobile phone covers that display flashing pics of nude Hollywood stars.
The 12 customised casings were grabbed during raids in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia's The Star reports.
The naughty phone covers show photos of famous actors and actresses, with nothing more than a few lights to cover their modesty. When the user makes or receives a call the stars' private parts light up.
State Deputy CID chief superintendent Abdul Razak Ghani told the newspaper that the lighting on the casing was so prominent it could be spotted from a distance.
Mobile casings normally sell for between RM25 ($6.58) and RM50 in Malaysia, but the flashing nude versions cost more.
The police raids were part of a general crackdown on pornography in the country. ®
