The DB Marg police on Saturday arrested a 29-year-old businessman from Charkop for allegedly sending a pornographic video clip to a housewife through WhatsApp. The suspect, identified as Alpesh Mehta, claimed he had randomly received the woman's number, police said.

According to the police, the 41-year-old woman received a WhatsApp message from an unknown number at 4 pm on July 15. The sender identified himself as Alpesh Mehta.

"Since the woman and her husband did not know any Alpesh Mehta, they chose to ignore the message. However, Mehta then started frequently messaging the woman. On Friday, at around 2.48 pm, Mehta allegedly sent her a pornographic video via WhatsApp. He then sent her another message asking whether she liked the video," said an officer from DB Marg police station.

Furious, the woman informed her husband about this incident. The couple then lodged a police complaint.

"We have arrested Mehta. He has been booked under various sections of the Indian Penal Code and the Information Technology Act for outraging the modesty of a woman and indecent act. Mehta claims he got the woman's number randomly, but we are verifying his claims," the officer said.
