S. Dileep Kumar alias Tejas of J.C. Nagar is the accused and he was arrested on Jan. 20. The arrest was made on the basis of CyberTipline complaint. CyberTipline is run by National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) and it is a nation’s centralised reporting system for online exploitation of children.

Following the directions of Supreme Court, Central Government is taking stringent measures in the cases of sexual abuse of women and children. 

Several portals have been opened under Cyber Crime Prevention against Women and Children (CCPWC), National Cyber Portal (NCCRP), NCMEC and any such cases against women and children posted on social media are being scrutinised. In such cases, a report will be sent to jurisdictional Police Stations to initiate action.

As Dileep Kumar had uploaded the sleaze clip on his Facebook wall, it was noticed by someone who alerted the NCMEC CyberTipline which traced the IP address to Dileep. He was arrested later.

The investigation was carried out by Cyber Crime Inspector N.G. Krishnappa along with ASI K.G. Niranjan, personnel M. Shivashankar, S. Ravikumar, Madhu Nagaraj, Nanjunda, Shivakumar, Veena and Nagarathna.
