Chennai: Nabbing Tamizachi – the France based Facebook account holder who was booked for spreading rumours on Tamil Nadu chief minister’s health – may take long time for the cyber sleuths of the city police. But they had arrested a Bible student from Thoothukudi district for reposting Tamizachi’s post and sharing the same in his FB account.
The Chennai police said that there was not much progress in the case against Tamizachi as they are yet to get reply from Facebook and Indian Computer Emergency Response Team about the details and identity of Tamizachi.
The 24-year-old Bible student identified as Antony Jesuraj from Pudukottai was arrested by the Chennai police based on a complaint from one S. Chandru, from Purusaiwakkam and a member of AIADMK IT wing. He in his complaint had said that the post by Antony Jesuraj was misleading and could create law and order problem.
Police said that the cyber crime wing tracked the FB account of Jesuraj to Antony Jesuraj, who had completed B.A. and diploma in psychology.
The city police had so far registered as many as 50 cases and in all over the state 7 people were arrested for allegedly spreading rumours about the health of chief minister, who is undergoing treatment in Apollo hospital in Chennai for more than three weeks now. Meanwhile the cyber sleuths noted that Tamizachi had herself removed her controversial post from the FB.
