NEW YORK – A porn video showing a young girl being raped by an adult male goes viral on Twitter and Facebook.

The video has been shared over 16,000 on Twitter and has been ‘liked’ more than 4,000 on Facebook since it appeared online a few days ago.

According to Daily Mail, thousands of Facebook users had the disturbing video or clips taken from it, appear on their timeline.

Facebook reacted quickly and has since removed the video from its site. A spokesperson for the social site told the Daily Mail:

“We have a zero tolerance policy when it comes to uploading child porn on Facebook. We are happy that users reported the material so that we could quickly intervene.”

Twitter had a more difficult time getting rid off the offensive material. It took the site 12 hours to remove all related posts and videos, thereby allowing Twitter users to retweet the disturbing material over and over again.
