Bengaluru, Jun 4: The cyber crime police have arrested a 32-year-old man who allegedly uploaded morphed photographs of his estranged wife along with her contact number on a dating website.
The accused, Vinay, who works as a clerical staff in a media house in Bengaluru, had separated from his wife following a domestic row.
According to the police, he was convinced that his wife was having an affair with her friend.
“He had created a fake account using her friend’s name on a dating platform and also uploaded photographs of his wife along with her contact number. The accused had even began to harass her friend’s family and friends through anonymous calls,” said the police.
The situation exacerbated after his wife started getting calls from strangers, seeking favours.
Unable to bear the harassment, her friend filed a complaint following which the cyber crime police tracked down Vinay.
He confessed to the crime, and has been booked under various sections of the IT Act and remanded to judicial custody.
