The Banashankari police have arrested a 26-year-old graduate with hotel management for shooting pics and videos of women without consent and uploading on his social media post.
Based on the complaint filed last week by one of the victim,the police track down the accused identified as Gurudeep Singh from his residence in KR Puram and booked him under voyeurism.
The accused is unemployed and staying with his brother.He used to hang out with his friends and click pictures of women indecently and post it on his page to get more clicks.
The police are in the process of taking down the page . The police also seized his mobile phone and sent to FSL for further analysis.
Addressing media persons in Delhi,CM Siddaramaiah said,It pains me deeply to see women being secretly filmed and harassed in public spaces,with such videos circulated online at the cost of women’s dignity.This is not the Karnataka we stand for.
Many incidents have been reported in the last few days, and our government has taken immediate action against the offenders,who have been arrested.We are monitoring such activities closely.
We must ask ourselves:
Where is our society headed if women cannot walk freely without fear of voyeurism or harassment? Such acts are crimes and betray our values as a society.
To the women of our state:we stand with you.Your safety and dignity are our priority, and we will act firmly against such crimes.
I urge every citizen:if you come across such videos or accounts online, please report them immediately to the cyber cell by calling 1930 or visiting cybercrime.gov.in.
Let us all work together to build a Karnataka where every woman feels safe, respected,and free he said.
