Later, the accused shot derogatory videos of the women and began blackmailing them over the videos. The Police filed an FIR based on the complaint of one of the women who confirmed that he had posed as a Brahmin and had said that he was a media person.
The Police launched an investigation into the case and discovered that the accused belonged to another community and his name is Nishant Raza. The police also recovered two identity cards from him, one in the name of Nishant Raj and the other one as Nishant Raza. The Police said that the accused had also made fake character certificates from the SP office.
The Police confirmed that the accused had blackmailed several women in the past and that his phone (now recovered by the Police) carried many derogatory videos of several Hindu women. In the current case, the woman who filed a police complaint against the accused is the mother of late army personnel and she said that the accused also harassed her daughter-in-law along with her.
Notably, the girlfriend of the accused arrived at the Chhatauni Police Station to seek the release of the accused. But after knowing the facts of the case, she cried and returned. SP Kantesh Mishra said that the accused had made two different character certificates in two different names so a separate FIR will be filed against him.
