Social media-related crimes, also targeted at men, are on the rise in Nepal

A week ago, a young couple lodged a complaint at the Nepal Police Cybercrime Bureau. In the complaint, while stating that they have been in a relationship for some time, they mentioned that a third person was threatening them by sending intimate pictures.

Soon after receiving the complaint, the bureau started investigating the technical aspect of the case and side by side to find how the photos were leaked.
