PUNE: The Sahakarnagar police on Wednesday registered a case against two teenagers (both 17) from Balajinaar on the charge of sodomising a 15-year-old boy and filming the incident on a cellphone.
The incident had occurred in November last year and the duo later extorted Rs1.72 lakh from the boy by threatening to upload the video clip on social networking platforms.
“We have registered a case, but are yet to question the teenagers. We will seize the cellphone used to film the incident and use digital forensics to retrieve the data if the clip is found to be deleted,” inspector Swati Desai of the Sahakarnagar police said.
(The victim's identity has not been revealed to protect her privacy as per Supreme court directives on cases related to sexual assault)
