Baghpat: The class X biology WhatsApp group of a private school in Baghpat, Uttar Pradesh have been found filled with pornographic materials.
According to the UP police, the man who created the group used an international number to escape detection. “But it appears to be the work of some insider as he had the photograph of the school’s Biology teacher, which he used in its DP, as well as all the phone numbers. The probe has been handed over to UP Police’s cyber cell,” a police officer was quoted as saying by The Tribune.
“Some vulgar pictures and videos were posted on a WhatsApp group named ‘Biology group Class 10’. The group had the display picture of the Biology teacher, who did not know about it. A probe has been ordered and it is being handled by the cyber-crime team,” Alok Singh, Circle Officer, Badaut area was quoted by the daily.
The principal of the school said, “We had received a complaint. The WhatsApp account was fake and was created with a foreign number. We have informed the police.”
The screenshots of chats shared by several parents showed that the person using the number asked children to send pictures of them. However, what kind of pictures he asked them to send is yet to be revealed.
