Police said Naveen started a film production company on the victim’s name displaying her pictures as logos and created her fake social media accounts. There, he uploaded web series, album songs and short films, etc.

When the victim warned him to stop his activities, Naveen refused to do so and instead started forcing her to give a No Objection Certificate for continuing his business.
