Mohali, January 25
The cyber crime wing of Punjab state crime branch, Mohali, has arrested a person for creating a fake e-mail ID and misusing it for ulterior purposes. The accused has been identified as Sourab Tondon (29), hailing from Solan and was working as an ayurvedic doctor.
A case was registered at the cyber crime police station under Sections 66A and 66D of the Information Technology Act (IT Act) and Sections 418, 419, 500 and 509 of the IPC on the complaint of Dr Sameer Kaushal of Amar Hospital, Sector 70, Mohali.
Earlier, the complainant alleged that someone has created a fake e-mail ID and deliberately sent a number of e-mails to various persons in which he had maligned the image of his hospital in the name of making illegal money by raising fake insurance policies. So much so, it was also wrongly mentioned that the doctor (complainant) did not possess valid medical degree.
DIG (crime) Kunwar Vijay Pratap Singh informed that the case was investigated and it was found that this act has been done by the accused, which was authenticated by IP details and other Internet particulars. The motive behind this act was to take revenge from the complainant as his friend, Sneha Gupta, was expelled from the hospital’s job. By this act of accused, the complainant was suffering from mental agony, besides financial losses.
The accused was produced before a Mohali court and was remanded in two-day police custody.
