NEW DELHI: A dentist practising at a Rohini clinic has alleged that one of her patients who clicked objectionable photographs of her after drugging her has been threatening to post the obscene clips online. The patient has been blackmailing her for three years, the woman has claimed.
According to police officials, the patient first visited the doctor's clinic three years ago complaining of a sore tooth. He visited the dentist four more times and each time he told her about his family problems, eventually striking a friendship with her.
"The woman told us that on one of his visits, the patient offered her some chocolates which were allegedly laced with sedatives. She lost conciousness for a while and woke up only to be told that her obscene clips will be released on social networking sites if she did not pay him some money. The woman claims to have paid over Rs 2.5 lakh him," said an investigator.
The complainant said that the accused forced her to pay Rs 1 lakh initially but demanded more money later. In the meantime, he set up a web-designing shop near her clinic and continued to harass her. Things turned uglier when the victim tried to work out a settlement by approaching the relatives of the accused and demanding the negatives of the pictures. When she reached the accused's Rohini residence on March 10, she was allegedly beaten up. A witness called the cops but the woman did not register a complaint fearing social embarrassment.
However, a few days later she confided in a relative who asked her to approach cops. "We have seized evidence from the victim's residence at Bahadurgarh, including a computer and CDs. We have sent them to FSL Rohini for analysis. We are trying to trace the accused. If the charges are proved to be true, we might even invoke the IT Act,'' said a senior police official, outer district. A case of blackmailing and cheating has been registered.
