Hyderabad (PTI): A 27-year-old man was arrested in Hyderabad for allegedly impersonating a police official and uploading fabricated videos on social media platforms to gain followers, police said on Wednesday.

The accused, who worked as a delivery executive with a food delivery aggregator, created and circulated misleading videos using AI-based software.

He falsely depicted himself as a police official and showcased weapons, potentially causing panic and misleading the public, a release from Hyderabad Police said.

Police said it came to their notice that fake videos were being circulated on social media, showing individuals posing as police personnel and displaying weapons.

Upon preliminary inquiry, it was found that the videos were fabricated using AI software and did not represent any real police activity.

The accused unlawfully impersonated a police official and created deceptive digital content, which is a punishable offence under relevant provisions of law.

Such acts can erode public trust and create unnecessary alarm, the release said.

Acting on credible information, police teams apprehended the accused and seized a mobile phone used in the offence.

A case under relevant sections of the BNS and the IT Act, 2000, was registered at Kalapathar Police Station.

Further investigation is underway to determine whether any other persons were involved in the creation and dissemination of such content, police added.
