A techie here has been arrested for sending vulgar messages through a fake email created in the name of a woman doctor whom he wanted to marry.

Narayandas Ashok Kumar, the software engineer hailing from Mahabubnagar district of Telangana and working in Britain, had come to Hyderabad to seek an alliance.

According to police, the 40-year-old met a woman and they moved close for some time. However, they could not marry due to some differences.

Ashok Kumar, who had become possessive about her, started harassing her and her family members and sending them abusive messages. According to an official of detective department at Central Crime Station, the techie bore a grudge due to the separation.

The accused created an email address in her name and was sending vulgar messages from this account to her relatives and friends. Police said this damaged her reputation.

Police have seized an Apple iphone and a laptop he was using for the offence.
