Kendrapara (Odisha), June 17

A 24-year-old man was arrested in Odisha’s Kendrapara district on Thursday for allegedly blackmailing a woman and uploading her nude photographs on social media, police said.

The accused had attempted to extort the woman and later uploaded the photographs of their intimate moments on a social media platform, an officer said.

He has been booked under several sections of the Indian Penal Code and IT Act, Talchua marine police station Inspector Srikant Kumar Barik said. PTI

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
