Prayagraj, 07 November: Allahabad High Court has said that the spread of obscene videos on internet (social media) is the result of social degradation. In such cases, police officers must ensure the highest quality while investigating.
The court has directed the DGP to take immediate steps to remove the shortcomings of police investigation and has ordered SP Jaunpur to appear on the next date of hearing with an explanation for not recovering the viral video. The witness stated that an obscene video was circulated on social media but the investigating officer did not recover that video. Which the court has taken seriously.
Justice Ajay Bhanot has given this order while hearing the bail application of accused Suraj. The next hearing of the petition will be on November 20. The court said that it is unfortunate that the quality of investigation by the UP Police is โvery weakโ which โcan lead to social unrest.โ
The court said that it seems that the order is not being followed or the police has failed to maintain the quality of investigation of IT related crimes. The court has directed the police to issue necessary guidelines to increase the quality of investigation.
