DPS MMS scandal: SC stays proceedings against eBay, its chief

Bajaj in his petition stated that Section 67 of the Act does not define the term obscenity and thus liability cannot be fixed on him for merely listing of the 2.37-minute video clip even if it was obscene. "Even assuming that the video clip is obscene, mere 'listing' cannot be obscene for the purpose of Section 67 of the Act merely because the video clip may be obscene," he said while seeking quashing of all the proceedings against him.

Cyber Crime Police cannot investigate email scams

Strange as it may seem, the Cyber Crime Police Station cannot investigate complaints of people who are being cheated by email scams. It can only investigate cases involving hacking, source code tampering and generation of obscene content.

Director-General of Police (Corps of Detectives) Ajai Kumar Singh said the local police have to register and investigate cases of cheating and other offences.

“Unless there is hacking, source code tampering and creation of obscene content, cases do not come under our purview,” Mr. Singh said. “Mere use of Internet as a mode for crime cannot be a cause for referring it to us,” he added.
