Mumbai cyber police have arrested one more student from Uttarakhand in connection with the 'Bulli Bai' app case.
The student, identified as 21-year-old Mayank Rawal, was nabbed in the early hours of Wednesday, police officials said.
The Mumbai police had earlier arrested 19-year-old Shweta Singh, who is allegedly the main culprit, from Uttarakhand, and a 21-year-old engineering student Vishal Kumar Jha from Bengaluru in connection with the case.
The Mumbai police had registered an FIR against unidentified persons following complaints that doctored photographs of hundreds of Muslim women were uploaded for ‘auction’ on the app called `Bulli Bai'. The app was hosted on the open-source software platform GitHub.
While there was no actual `auction' or `sale', the purpose of the app seemed to be to humiliate and intimidate the targeted women, many of whom are active social media users.
The Mumbai cyber police station has also registered a case against the app's unidentified developers and Twitter handles which promoted it.
