Cabby arrested for stalking woman online

KOLKATA: A middle-aged taxi driver was arrested by a joint team of Netaji Nagar Police and Cyber Cell of Jadavpur police division on Thursday for allegedly stalking a woman online and sharing obscene images in her name on social media.

The accused, Suraj Singh, originally hailing from Muzaffarpur in Bihar, also created a fake Facebook profile in her name.

This was for the second time the driver was nabbed. Earlier, the Netaji Nagar police had arrested him for harassing the woman. He started disturbing her again once he came out of the jail. According to the police, the victim had travelled in Singh’s taxi in the beginning of last year. “This time, he created a fake account on social media to outrage her modesty,” said an officer.
