On Wednesday night, Versova police arrested a small-time writer and a
film producer for allegedly sending lewd messages to Sapna, an actress,
on her mobile phone, and posting vulgar comments about her on a
social networking website.
The accused - Harish Jaiswal (42) and Mukesh Pandey (28) - were
allegedly defaming the actress on a social networking website since the
past three months.
When the actress could not bear the abuse any further, she decided to
teach the duo a lesson and recorded their conversation on her mobile
phone. She then approached Versova police and lodged a complaint against
the two.
`The FIR was registered against the duo based on the mobile phone
recording, ` said Sharad Borse, senior PI of Versova police station.
Police arrested the duo and presented them before the court yesterday.
Both Jaiswal and Pandey have been remanded in police custody till
Monday.
`We have seized the computers of the duo to match the IP address from
which the comments were posted. Besides, we are also trying to find out
if they have committed a similar crime in the past, ` an officer from
Versova police station said.
The lust story
Jaiswal and Pandey had met the actress and offered her an item song in
their film. According to police, the duo then asked the actress for
sexual favours. But when she refused to oblige, they started harassing
her.
`They defamed me on the website by posting lewd and vulgar
remarks on my pictures. When I tried to block them from my account on
the social networking website, they started calling me on my mobile
phone, " the actress alleged.
