The Story in Brief
The Cyber, Economics and Narcotics police in Davangere have registered separate cases against two men for allegedly sharing child sexual abuse videos on social media. The accused, identified as P M Pratham and M D Faizan, are residents of the city.
According to Deccan Herald, Faizan allegedly shared a sexual abuse video in 2022, and Pratham shared another such video in 2025. The arrests followed a verification of cyber tipline reports aimed at preventing sexual violence against women and children.
The Indian Opinion
The glare of a tipline report caught these men, but the bigger story is how many more are sharing such material undetected. India's justice system often treats digital crimes as lesser offences. Every video shared is a victim abused again. A real test would be conviction rates: will these cases end in meaningful punishment or yet another adjourned hearing?
