Arrest u/s 67 @ kolkatta PDF Print E-mail
Surajit Pal, an MSc in Computer Science from Sikkim’s Manipal University and presently working with US-based software company, Valley Info System, was arrested this week for sending abusive and obscene e-mails to NGO's female employees as a revenge for the mis-treatment he received when he consulted the NGO over the telephone over and again for the same matter.

Though Telegraph reported about the lack of infrastrucure of Calcutta's Cyber Crime Cell, allegeing it exists on paper only. But the said arrest was commendable. As the Police tracked the accused technically only.

Police has siezed the Computer of the accused from where one of the email was sent. Other emails were sent from a Cyber Cafe. The accused had created anonymous email IDs, @ sify.com and yahoo.com, which were tracked through IP Tracking. Surajit has admitted to the offence and has been charged under Sec 67 of Information technology Act, 2000, which will result in 5 years imprisonment. And it's an non-bailable offence.
