AHMEDABAD: A 15-year-old girl who was given a mobile for online studies began posting nude pictures on social media account. When her parents learnt that their daughter was not only posting indecent photographs online but also instigating her cousins to do the same, they suffered heart attacks.
Worried about the teen’s actions, the family called up 181 helpline. The parents told 181 counsellors that they had given their daughter a separate room and a mobile phone so that she could carry on with her online studies in peace. However, the girl began posting pictures of her private parts on social media. She posted her nude photographs online and even ask her cousins to follow her on social media and post their photographs too.
When the relatives informed her parents of what was happening, the father and mother both had heart attacks. They recovered but the girl continued to post indecent photographs online.
The counsellors called the girl and made her aware that her act was a violation of cybercrime. The girl promised that she would use the cellphone only in front of her parents. After talking to the counsellors, the girl deleted her social media account and promised to use her mobile phone only for studies.
