JAKARTA - David Ellefson was expelled from the band Megadeth this week. The decision was made by the band's frontman, Dave Mustaine, after several explicit photos and videos featuring Ellefson circulated on the internet.

Rumors emerged, one of which said Ellefson was suspected of grooming a fan. Ellefson denied the news. Grooming is child molestation on social media.

“Later, a privacy video was illegally uploaded on the internet and false accusations against me were circulating. "The action in the video is between two adults with consent which was recorded without my knowledge," Ellefson quoted Rolling Stone as saying today, Thursday, May 27.

Currently, Ellefson's party is preparing a lawsuit against defamation against the person who uploaded the video.

"I'm going to sue this man," said Ellefson.

Meanwhile, Mustaine - the vocalist, guitarist and leader of Megadeth - announced the sacking of Ellefson on Monday, May 24.

"We don't know every detail of what happened, what has been revealed now is enough to make cooperation impossible to continue," he said.

Previously, Ellefson shared a statement from a woman who received her message online. The woman explained that the video call really happened but she was the one who started it first. Not Ellefson.

“I am a consenting adult. No inappropriate incident had occurred before that. I am not a victim and I am not harassed considering I started it first, ”he said.
