DSP of UT Police alleges multiple fake profiles, case filed

The individuals operating these accounts have been found engaging in serious fraudulent and defamatory activities, including soliciting money from the public under false pretences such as claiming illness of a family member (eg mother) or sending gifts from abroad (eg UK).

It was alleged that the user of the fake profile was sending inappropriate and misleading messages, particularly to female users, using his (DSP) identity, thereby causing embarrassment and harm to the DSP’s professional reputation.

Also, several students and individuals have been deceived into transferring money, thinking these accounts genuinely belonged to DSP Panday. The DSP alleged that some of these impersonators have created fake Aadhaar cards and forged police ID cards using his name and photograph to falsely legitimise their claims. “These acts are not only illegal but are also severely affecting my professional integrity and personal image, and causing harm to unsuspecting members of the public,” said DSP Panday in his complaint, seeking legal action against the accused person.
