Obscene video on social media: 4 months on, Punjab MLA lodges another complaint

Ludhiana: In the case of an obscene video uploaded on a Facebook page, in which a lookalike of Congress MLA Sanjay Talwar is seen with women dancers, the Tibba police have lodged one more FIR against unidentified accused.
Earlier on February 13 too, a case was registered against an unidentified accused when the video was first shared on a Facebook page named ‘Congress Mukt Punjab’.
MLA Talwar said, “On February 13, the FIR was lodged against unidentified accused for sharing the video.
On Sunday two more people shared the video and accused me of being in it.
Therefore, I have lodged a fresh complaint with the police and also given names of both the accused.
The police have also written to the Facebook headquarters to remove the video, but have not got any response so far.” Assistant commissioner of police (east) Devinder Chaudhary said the police were verifying the names of the accused and then would add them, but as of now a case has been registered under sections 499 (defamation), 500 (punishment for defamation) of the IPC and under the IT Act.
Talwar said his wife Meenu Talwar died of cancer.
On February 10, when her bhog ceremony was scheduled, an unidentified person uploaded the video.
“The accused deliberately uploaded it on that day to attack me personally and emotionally,” he said.
On February 13, a letter was found at the office of his personal assistant in which the accused had allegedly threatened him to pay Rs 50 lakh or he would upload more such videos to defame him, he claimed.
In another case, the Tibba police had, on February 15, arrested a worker of Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD), Paramjeet Singh Pamma, for defaming Meenu Talwar by uploading defamatory remarks on his Facebook profile.
