A 21-year-old man was arrested for allegedly sending abusive and threatening messages to his friend’s husband in northeast Delhi, police said on Friday.
The accused was identified as Shahbaaz of Mustafabad, they said.
According to the police, complainant Imran approached them after he and his family members received abusive, vulgar, threatening and extortion messages from different international WhatsApp numbers.
Similar messages were also sent to his sister’s fiancé, Imran told the police.
During investigation of the case, the numbers were put on surveillance and their location tracked. They all were being operated by the mobile number and the IP address of Aamir of Old Mustafabad, a senior officer said.
