The Delhi police have arrested two men for allegedly uploading porn images and jokes on the phone messaging app WhatsApp.
The two, one of whom was the administrator of the group, were arrested on the complaint of a woman advocate and have been booked on charges of outraging a woman’s modesty. They were sent to judicial custody by a city court but were later released on bail, after they furnished their bail bonds.
The two accused have been identified as Manoj and Kuldeep. A senior police officer said that Manoj had not uploaded any porn videos or images on the WhatsApp group but was responsible for adding Kuldeep to the group and not removing him despite the woman’s complaint.
The woman in her complaint to the Saket police station alleged that she was added to a WhatsApp group by one of her relatives some months ago. The accused had then added some of their common friends and a few of his friends. She alleged that one morning when she woke up she had received over 10 messages on that group and one of the members had sent obscene photographs and adult jokes.
“Her complaint states that on receiving the messages, she first ignored the messages but when the same person kept sending adult jokes that were in bad taste and offending pictures, it became a nuisance and she called the PCR and reported the matter to the police,” a senior police officer said.
Furthermore the woman said that the accused Kuldeep had used ‘vulgar language’ in conversations and appeared to be a pervert which prompted her to report him to the police. Police said that on receiving the woman’s complaint they registered a case at the Saket Police station,
“As evidence we accessed her chat details and snapshots of the messages the man had sent. Since the chat had the phone number, we sent a team to his address and made the arrest. He was arrested on Tuesday,” police said.
