Meanwhile, the leaking of the nude video of a young man's girlfriend led to harassment, suicide attempt, and eventually murder in Andhra Pradesh's Kurnool district recently. The elaborate flow of incidents was uncovered by police, who said Erukeli Dinesh, the murder accused, had kept the videos in his phone, which his friend Mallepogu Muralikrishna happened to access.
The latter blackmailed the girl, threatening to leak the clips to her friends and family. Under pressure, the young woman tried to die by suicide, and was admitted to a hospital. According to the police, this enraged Dinesh, who hatched a plan and successfully killed Muralikrishna with help of another acquaintance in the Balajinagar area of Kurnool.
