A 22-year-old man was arrested in the Shaheen Bagh area of India for extorting money from several people by threatening to post their nude pictures on social media. The accused, identified as Mohammad Aman, was found to have made an Instagram account using random girls’ photos, and started sending requests to men. After they would chat with him, Aman would ask for their nude pictures, start blackmailing them by leveraging those pictures, and extort money. Police found that he had around Rs 33 lakh in his account. The case came to light after a man complained that a woman he had met on social media had been blackmailing him using the nude pictures he had sent her. The woman had extorted Rs 21,600 in five different transactions, but the money was credited to Aman’s account. Police are investigating if there are more such incidents.
