Bengaluru, July 10, 2025: A 26-year-old man has been arrested in Bengaluru for allegedly posting voyeuristic photos and videos of women on Instagram.

A student shared her complaint regarding this on social media, where a video of hers was shot in public at Church Street, taken very inappropriately, and posted online without her consent. The reel has gone viral, and people are sending her vulgar messages, she said.

The complainant stated that, like hers, there were videos of many women posted online by this man.

A senior police officer said that the Instagram page came to their notice last month and that they had arrested the man by taking up a suo motu case.

The suspect has been identified as Gurdeep Singh, a hotel management graduate from K R Puram. 

The Banashankari police are making efforts to take down his Instagram page.

The case was registered under Section 78(2) of the BNS, which deals with the offence of stalking, and Section 67 of the Information Technology Act, 2008 (IT Act), which addresses the publication or transmission of obscene material in electronic form.
