Youth rapes girl, uploads video on Facebook
ALWAR: A youth allegedly raped a 15-year-old girl in Rajasthan's Alwar and uploaded a video clipping of the act on Facebook.
An FIR was registered by the girl's father against Samir alias Lala on Tuesday after some relatives watched the video and told the victim's family members.
According to the police Lala came in contact with the girl on Facebook nearly one-and-a-half years ago.
"As per the FIR, Lala visited the girl when she was alone in her house and then raped her. The girl didn't report the matter as Lala had made a video clipping using his mobile phone," a police officer said.
The officer said that the accused started blackmailing the girl using the video and threatened to make it public if she told anyone.

NEW DELHI: Monitoring and use of social media can help prevent crimes and police will be "foolish" if they do not take advantage of it, a senior Delhi Police official said here.
S N Srivastava, Special Commissioner of Delhi Police (Special Cell), said there is a "little scope" of increasing manpower in police but through proper training and use of technological advances this gap could be bridged.
"I would like to make a special mention of the technology that is available to us in the form of social media. One can prevent a lot of crime through social media and through other means to interact with the public. Social media, the way people build network.
"Police agencies will be foolish if they don't take advantage of that as the way to connect with people. Monitoring of social media can help assess public opinion which could be useful in maintaining law and order situation," Srivastava said.
He made these remarks at a press conference to announce the 16th India International Security Expo - 2013. The four-day event will be held in the city from September 26 to 29.
Srivastava said different channels, particularly social media, can bridge the communication gap and increase citizen's involvement in local policing efforts.
