Rajkot: The craving to garner ‘likes’ and gain a sense importance, though a false one, on social media landed a 28-year-old farmer from Amreli’s Shivad village in trouble. Vijay Sisnada was on Friday arrested for creating a fake Facebook account of Amreli superintendent of police Nirlipt Rai.
J P Bhandari, deputy superintendent of police (DySP), Amreli, confirmed that the arrested accused created the fake account of IPS officer Rai in order to garner ‘likes’ on the social media. “Sisnada has no criminal past,” a police official said.
“This is the screenshot of the fake Facebook profile made in the name of SP Amreli. We have initiated legal action. The posts and comments may be ignored,” Amreli SP Nirlipt Rai tweeted on Friday after the accused was arrested.
