Bengaluru: A Bengaluru based businessman has been arrested for allegedly publishing objectionable pictures of his ex-girlfriend.

It has been reported that their relationship broke up following a cheating complaint. The complainant, a consultant in a private firm, met the accused on social media in 2016 and fell in love. The complainant cancelled her engagement with her childhood friend as she wanted to marry the accused.

The complainant and the accused were in a live-in relationship in 2017. The accused took Rs5 lakh from her saying he wanted to start a poker club in his home town. He then took Rs4 lakh. Meanwhile, her childhood friend found out that the accused was in a relationship with another woman and had not invested her money in any business. The victim then broke up with the accused.

However, he threatened he would circulate their intimate photos if she refused to marry him. She met him and asked him to delete the photos and videos but instead, he sent them to her brother, sister-in-law and colleagues. She then got in touch with the BKC cyber police and got them to delete the obscene photos uploaded on social media.

The complainant then finally approached the Vakola police station where an FIR was registered on March 16 under section 354, 354D, 354 C, 509 and 506 of the IPC and 67 of the IT Act.

Mathura(UP), Apr 5 (PTI): A retired Army colonel from Haryana has filed a police complaint here, alleging that he was held hostage, assaulted, looted and forced to participate in an "obscene video" at gunpoint with a woman he met through a matrimonial website, police said on Saturday.

The woman from Mathura, who was allegedly in on the plan to rob him, was working with other accomplices, the ex-armyman said in his complaint filed on Thursday.

According to Barsana Station House Officer (SHO) Raj Kamal Singh, Colonel Rajneesh Soni (retired), a resident of Gurugram, reported that he was contacted by a woman from Barsana on a matrimonial website in January. The woman allegedly agreed to marry him, and they began communicating.

The woman allegedly persuaded the colonel to visit Barsana on January 25, requesting that he visit the Radharani temple. When he arrived, she arranged for his stay at a guest house and took him on a tour of the area, including a visit to the temple, the complainant said.

After returning to the guest house, the woman and her accomplices allegedly told the colonel that her brother had been involved in an accident and they needed to leave immediately. They then led him to a waiting car.

"Once outside the town limits, the colonel alleges that he was attacked by the occupants of the car. They seized his phone, physically assaulted him, and forced him to contact relatives and friends to transfer money," the SHO said.

"He was then taken back to the guest house, where he was allegedly forced to participate in obscene videos and photographs at gunpoint. He was threatened that the videos would be made public if he reported the incident," the officer said.

The colonel has alleged that his purse, bag, gold chain, debit card and Rs. 12,000 in cash were stolen from the guest house.

After an unsuccessful attempt at locating the perpetrators himself, the colonel finally reported the incident to the Barsana police two days ago, he said.

"A case has been registered under relevant sections of the BNS and all facts are being investigated. Further action will be taken as per facts found in the investigation," the SHO said.
