AHMEDABAD: A medical student who was pretending to be a female MBBS student on dating sites and other social networks was arrested by cybercrime cops. The accused was identified as Kush alias Chotu Patel, 20, a MBBS student and a resident of Modasa.

Kush was arrested following a complaint lodged by a Chandkheda MBBS student whose fake profile was created by Kush. The police said that Kush has created a fake profile of the girl as she was ignoring him and was not responding to his messages.

According to the officials the complainant claimed that on a dating application a profile was created with IDs of Naiya, Cutie, Sweet Girl and the accused had uploaded her profile picture there. He even gave the mobile number of the girl and her Instagram ID to others with whom he chatted posing as the complainant.

The complainant claimed that she recently got messages from an unidentified person who informed her that he had got her number from a dating profile. The girl also started receiving messages from unidentified persons who informed her that they had got the number from dating sites. The girl later approached police.

The accused Kush stated that he knew the girl as they were from the same community. He even included the girl in the MBBS students group of which he was the admin.

When the girl ignored his overtures, Kush took to cybercrime to get back at her.

After the girl had lodged the complaint, cops obtained the IP address of the device from which the fake IDs had been created and zeroed in on Kush in Modasa.
