The Vuyyuru police in Andhra Pradesh’s Krishna district arrested photographer D. Ramakrishna for allegedly creating a fake social media account in a woman's name to harass her. Superintendent of Police V. Vidyasagar Naidu said Ramakrishna sent obscene messages from the fake account to others, posing as the complainant. A team led by Vuyyuru Circle Inspector T.V.V. Ramarao and the cybercrime police traced the account to Ramakrishna. He was arrested on Wednesday (August 12, 2026). The SP said stern action would be taken against those who harass women and children on social media platforms, as reported by The Hindu.
