Kolkata(Agencies):Bengali
women, mostly from the city, are being abused and trolled by unknown people on
their social networking sites for the past one week after deceased Bollywood
actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s father lodged a police complaint against actress
Rhea Chakraborty holding her responsible for his son’s death.
The cyber cell department of
Kolkata Police has started a probe into the matter, an official of the force
said.
The West Bengal Commission for
Women has received at least four complaints over mail by women following which
the police probe has begun.
Since the last one week that
we have been receiving complaints from women in the city regarding such abuses
on their social networking sites. There are at least four complaints we have
received over mail. We have forwarded them to Kolkata Police for necessary
action, Commission chairperson Leena Gangopadhyay told PTI.
One woman who is in her late
20s has lodged a police complaint saying that she was being abused by unknown
people on her social networking platform for being a Bengali.
We have started a case and are
investigating the matter, the police official said.
The women have complained that
they had received abusive posts in which they have been labelled as
gold-diggers and practising black magic, he said.
The cyber cell sleuths have
contacted nodal officers and sought details of the social networking sites of
the women who have received such offensive comments, the official added. PTI
