A software engineer was arrested in Hyderabad on Saturday for allegedly creating a fictitious vulgar profiles of a girl on social networking sites, Cyber Crimes Police said.
The parents of Shiva Shankar Madisetty, a software engineer at a MNC software firm in Bangalore, had asked for the girl's hand for their son but were turned down by her parents. Apparently dejected, Madisetty wanted to harass the girl, CID Superintendent of Police B Sumathi said.
After collecting details (including cell phone number) of the girl through social networking sites, Madisetty created a fictitious profile of the girl with her photo and added vulgar content, the police officer said.
The woman started getting phone calls based on the false profile after which she complained to Cyber Crimes Police. "The phone calls caused the victim and her family members deep mental agony," Sumathi said.
During the course of investigation, the IP address was traced to Madisetty, the police officer said.
