Man held for uploading obscene images
The Andhra Pradesh police have arrested a techie for allegedly opening a fake Facebook account of his former woman colleague and publishing obscene pictures.
T Satish, an engineer working with an MNC in Bangalore, was arrested on Thursday and CID officials seized one laptop and one hard-disk from his possession, used for uploading allegedly obscene images of the victim, Cyber Crime SP U Rammohan said.
During the investigation, Satish confessed he and the victim used to work together in Hyderabad and had became good friends.
According to the police, taking advantage of the victim’s friendship, Satish had blackmailed her and made her give approval to their marriage.
Subsequently, Satish took some obscene photographs of the victim by threatening her, the CID official said adding that due to the attitude of the accused, the victim gradually moved away from him and finally stopped talking to him.
Angered by this, Satish hacked her email ID and transmitted her obscene pictures to the contact list.
Later, he also created a fake Facebook account of hers and published her obscene pictures and sent the same to her friends and relatives, the SP said. Following the complaint, Satish was arrested from Bangalore and was remanded in judicial custody for 15 days on Friday.
