Sonakshi Sinha Files Complaint Over Morphed Photos, Delhi Man Arrested, Later Released By Mumbai Court For Not Following Legal Procedure

Actress Sonakshi Sinha filed a police complaint after discovering objectionable morphed photos of herself circulating on social media. The Bandra Police arrested Delhi-based Aryan Deepak Jain on November 14 at the Jagatpuri Police Station in Shahdara, Delhi. However, a Mumbai court later released Jain, citing that the police had not followed the necessary legal procedure for his arrest.

The court observed that Jain was not produced before the nearest magistrate in Delhi before being brought to Mumbai, and therefore his arrest was deemed illegal. Jain's lawyers questioned the legality of his arrest, arguing that their client had not committed any offense and suggesting that the complainant's influential position may have influenced the police action.
