There is a direct involvement of the arrested duo in the case, Singh stated. The comments on social media platforms are being analysed. Asked if the arrested individuals are fans of Sandalwood actor Darshan and whether they posted vulgar comments on their own, Singh said the investigating officers are verifying these aspects. As of now, police learned that the duo posted the comments themselves. "Our social media monitoring team is keeping watch on people who post derogatory and obscene comments, and strict action will be taken against them, no matter who they are," Singh added. Another senior officer said that soon after the news of Ramya's complaint spread in the media, the accused deleted their accounts. However, cybercrime police had already saved the links and details of the the accounts. Obscene comments were found to have been posted on Instagram and X. Ramya listed 43 accounts in her complaint. "We have communicated with the management of the social media platforms concerned, including Instagram and X. The accused are being tracked with the help of their IP addresses and registered mobile numbers," the senior officer said. "Suspects may be under the impression that they can escape if they delete the accounts and comments, but we have our technical methods to trace them," the senior officer added. Ramya lodged a complaint on July 28 by meeting Singh in his office on Infantry Road. The investigation is being carried out under the supervision of deputy commissioner of police (Crime-2) Raja Imam Kasim.
