Over the years, social media has become the go-to-place whether one has to express happiness or vent out frustration. It has emerged as the place where people take to washing their dirty laundry in public and also harm others by making insensitive comments.

Man arrested for posting exgirlfriends photos on social media

32-year-old Anthony Rajesh Kumar posted pictures of his 23-year-old ex-girlfriend as her parents refused his marriage proposal when they found out the man was already married, reports Deccan Chronicle. He is a native of Thoothukudi and working in a textile showroom in Mambalam. 

The report adds that once the girl told her family about Kumar, they met him and insisted on meeting his family. He said he is a orphan and sounded suspicious. Soon, they enquired about him and found out he is already married and has a child too. 

They soon found another suitable boy for the girl, but he discovered the photos posted by Kumar and called off the wedding. When Kumar was asked to remove the photos, he refused to do so. A case was then filed against Kumar for posting her images without her permission. Kumar has now been arrested.
