A woman was arrested by the Twin City Commissionerate Police for allegedly blackmailing politicians, businessmen, movie producers, and police officials with videos of their intimate moments with her. Police seized two pen drives and two mobile phones from her possession.
Sources said, the accused, a married woman, used to identify herself as a lawyer and befriend influential persons on Facebook.
She also used to invite them to her house and record intimate moments on hidden cameras. Blackmailing them with the videos and demanding money from them was her modus operandi.
She had been under the police scanner since 2021. At least three cases were filed against her so far.
Recently, a noted film producer complained to the Nayapalli police alleging that the woman was demanding Rs 3 crore from him. Acting on the complaint, police apprehended her.
