A London-based Non-Resident Indian (NRI) has been booked for sending obscene pictures and messages to a Gurgaon woman on social networking sites, police said on Sunday.
The woman works here in a private company and has registered a case under a relevant section of the cyber crime law, police said.
The complainant said she came in contact with the accused on social networking site Facebook a few months ago.
After some time, the man proposed marriage to her and both started sharing intimate pictures and personal details through WhatsApp, police said.
According to police, the woman alleged that the man later hacked her Facebook account, posted obscene pictures and started blackmailing her.
"The accused is currently in London. We are verifying the information shared by him to the woman. He might have given some wrong facts to the victim," Assistant Commissioner of Police Hawa Singh told IANS.
