Two people were arrested for allegedly morphing pictures of a female YouTuber and later selling them to earn quick money, a Mumbai police official said.

According to the Santacruz police station official, one of the accused, nabbed from Assam, morphed photos of the 25-year-old woman. The second accused, caught from Vasai town in adjoining Palghar district, sold these pictures on social media.

During probe, the police found the duo had opened a fake Instagram account, where they put up these objectionable pictures for sale, he said.

They were arrested and booked under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code, including 354-D (stalking) and also the IT Act, said the official, adding further investigation was underway.
