Rajkot: A 27-year-old man, who was rejected by his girlfriend after he was caught in a case of bootlegging, decided to take revenge on her by maligning her image on social media.
Accused Babudin Ansari of Varshamedi village of Anjar taluka in Kutch district circulated the 25-year-old woman’s objectionable pictures and video clips on WhatsApp and social media and also sent these to her family.
Police said the accused was caught after the woman filed a rape complaint against Ansari.
“The accused and the survivor used to work together in a firm in Anjar. The survivor broke up with Ansari after he was booked in a bootlegging case.
