Cyber police in Kashmir gears up taskforce to curb online crime

Cyber Police in Srinagar, Jammu Kashmir has geared up its task force and intensified efforts to curb the online crimes in the Valley, an official said, as per the agency report.

The development comes after the police received several complaints through various channels that some people were using fake identities on social media to attack women.

Taking note of these complaints, Superintendent of Cyber Police Tahir Ashraf geared up his team and increased monitoring.

In some cases, men were morphing images and threatening women said the official. “These are among some cases where many women don’t want to make official complaints, fearing stigma,” he said to media.
