Hyderabad, February 04: A software engineer of a multi-national company ( MNC) in Bangalore was arrested on Friday by Crime Investigation Department (CID) officials for allegedly uploading his ex-colleague's obscene photographs, which he forcibly took, in social networking sites.
According to the CID sleuths, 27-year-old T Satish was arrested from Bangalore, where he is presently working. The victim, also a software engineer, lodged a complaint with the CID in January alleging that Satish, who was her former colleague, befriended her at one point of time.
"Taking advantage of this friendship, Satish forcibly took her obscene photographs. Subsequently, the victim distanced herself from Satish, which annoyed him", additional director general of police (CID) SV Ramana Murthy said in a press release.
Holding a grudge against the victim, Satish hacked the girl's email ID and started sending her obscene photographs to her friends. He also uploaded her photographs on Facebook. This caused extreme mental agony to the victim, who later lodged a complaint. "In the last one-and-a-half months, Satish has been constantly uploading her photographs,'' CID officials said. The accused was arrested under the Information Technology Act.
== State allowed time to spruce up hostels
Hyderabad: A division bench of the AP High Court comprising Chief Justice Madan B Lokur and Justice PV Sanjay Kumar on Friday recorded the statement of the state government that it requires one month to repair the premises of various social welfare hostels in the city and two months in cases where the hostels are run from rented premises.
The bench then adjourned the matter by four weeks after getting an Amicus to visit the hostels again and report whether the government has kept its promise. Also, the bench faulted the government after perusing the documents placed before it.
Chief Justice Lokur wondered how, on the one hand, it was the statement of the government that all was fine and on the other, it required time to carry out repairs.
The bench critically referred to the budgetary details and voiced surprise that not a single paisa had lapsed in the budget for the last five years.
The bench also pointed out how in some cases the supply of material like blankets was more than the sanctioned strength.
