TWO men were arrested for allegedly extorting a man of ₹35,000 after luring him into a video call through a fake dating app profile and threatening to circulate an obscene screen recording of the call profile in east Delhi's Shahdara area, police said on Monday.

The accused have been identified as Shyam Singh (21), a resident of Rajasthan, and Mangal Singh (31), a resident of Delhi. According to police, a case was registered on Thursday based on the statement of the victim, who claimed he met a woman on a mobile dating app.
After exchanging numbers, they began chatting on WhatsApp. The woman then initiated an explicit video call in which the complainant's face was visible and recorded the session using a screen recorder.
