Nov 19, 2016: The Dharmasthala Police arrested 21-year-old Mahesh, a native of Belthangady, for an alleged derogatory post about his girlfriend on a social networking site.

The girl (17) lodged a complaint with the police on November 2 accusing Mahesh, who is working in a private company in Bengaluru, of morphing her face on a nude photograph and circulating it on a social networking site.

The girl said that Mahesh, a senior in her college in Belthangady, did it after she refused his proposal for physical contact.

The police traced Mahesh to a house in Bengaluru and arrested him on Friday.

He has been accused under Sections 292 (Sale, etc., of obscene books) and 509 (uttering any word or making any gesture intended to insult the modesty of a woman) of the Indian Penal Code.

He has also been booked under Section 67 of the Information Technology Act and under Section 14 of Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act.
