Cops said the accused committed the crime to take revenge on the couple for a dispute. The couple and the accused had allegedly gotten into a heated argument during Navratri last year, following which the accused opened the Instagram account. To make the profile look credible, the accused even took a photo from the woman’s profile and posted it.  IFSO Arrests Google Analyst Mohit Sharma for Posting Nude Images of Women on Instagram

Over the next three months, the accused chatted with the complainant and also asked her to share nude photos. She sent the same, thinking it was her husband. However, when the accused kept pressing her for more such photos, she refused. Following this, the 20-year-old threatened to share her nude photos on social media as well as with her relatives. Finding this strange, the woman confronted her husband and learnt that it was not him.

The couple then approached the police on March 10. The accused was produced before the court and has been sent to police custody till March 28.
