Samastipur, Bihar, is reeling from a shocking case where a jilted lover used drugs and secret recordings to blackmail his former girlfriend. Their relationship, forged in school corridors, endured until her family fixed her marriage elsewhere.
Enraged, the man faked a birthday party to meet her. He mixed intoxicants in her drink, filmed explicit acts while she was impaired, and began a reign of terror. Repeated summons led to more videos, each a tool for coercion.
He escalated by threatening to flood social media with the content unless she broke off the engagement. A new fake Instagram ID amplified the harassment. Finally breaking silence, she sought refuge at the women’s police station and cyber unit.
Investigators are gearing up to file charges under relevant cyber statutes against the accused from Karyanpur police limits. Death threats targeted not just her, but her in-laws too, via relentless calls.
His family turned a blind eye despite warnings. The victim’s courageous stand against this psychological warfare calls attention to escalating cyber-enabled abuses in relationships. Officials promise swift justice to restore her peace.
