BBC broadcast the documentary -- which is based on the December 16, 2002, gangrape in Delhi -- in the UK yesterday and the video has since gone viral on the internet. YouTube has, however, begun blocking it after being asked by the Indian government.
According to cyber crime experts, it is now very difficult to block all the content.
"Once the video is public, it is impossible to stop the circulation of the interview. There are tools which can search a particular content on the web but complete blocking is difficult.
The controversy surrounding the interview increased the curiosity among the general public and, following the UK telecast of the 60-minute long video, the film went viral on Youtube, social media and torrent sites even though a court has banned its broadcast in India.
Experts claimed that cops will also have to struggle in finding the origin of video uploads as most of the servers are located abroad.
The video is already circulating on social media websites and WhatsApp.
