This incident echoes a similar case reported earlier in Bengaluru, Karnataka, where legal action was taken against a man for sending obscene content to his wife via email. The convict, a private company employee in his 30s, was found guilty under the Information Technology Act and sentenced to one month of simple imprisonment along with a hefty fine of Rs 45,000.
According to reports, the marriage between the convict and his wife, which took place in late 2016, soured over time, leading to the couple seeking divorce. Matters took a grave turn when the woman's younger brother filed a formal complaint against his brother-in-law, accusing him of sending lewd and explicit content to his sister via email.
Upon registering an FIR against her spouse, the woman flew to Bengaluru to take legal action against the accused. Subsequent investigations substantiated the allegations, confirming that the accused had indeed sent obscene video links accompanied by lewd comments to his wife.
