Two more persons have been arrested in the case relating to posting of paedophilic content on social networking site Facebook.
Last month, 27-year-old Yadava Manikanta, hailing from Andhra Pradesh, was arrested by Crime Branch-CID officials for creating community pages that portray young girls in a derogative manner on the website, a CB-CID release said.
Two more persons -- G Rajeswaran and K Rajesh -- both hailing from Chennai were arrested for "making obscene and lascivious comments against girl children," the release said.
The duo was arrested and remanded to judicial custody yesterday, it added.
