VADODARA: A law student of Lucknow-based Dr Ram Manohar Lohia National Law University was booked by the detection of crime branch (DCB) after he allegedly threatened to upload obscene pictures and videos of his former girlfriend living in
Ellora Park area.
The girl, a fine arts student of
Parul University, registered a complaint against the boy
Vidyashakti Vardhan for stalking, criminal intimidation and under Information Technology Act on Saturday.

Vardhan had been harassing for the past three to four months on social media chat and forcing her into relationship with him. He allegedly threatened the girl, who has been living as a paying guest for the three years, to upload her pictures and videos on social media if she did not give in to his demands.
In March last year, a fake profile of the girl was also made on a photo sharing application. The girl suspected that Vardhan had created the fake profile with a different name but had uploaded her photos.
