E-chat lands IIT graduate in trouble


An IIT Kanpur graduate, working as an engineer in a multinational firm in Gurgaon, has knocked the doors of the Delhi High Court seeking protection from his online friend –– a woman research associate with IIT, Mumbai –– who allegedly subjected him to emotional blackmail.
After hearing the plea of Mr Subhash (name changed), Justice Suresh Kait has issued summons to the woman to appear in his court on Monday.
In his plea, Subhash told the court that he befriended the girl on Internet last August and began chatting with her.
The duration of the chat gradually grew longer and often ended late into the night. Mr Subhash said as the friendship grew, she insisted upon meeting him and came over to Delhi.
“After meeting me, she began pressing for marriage despite being at least five to six years older to me,” 25-year-old Mr Subhash said.
Mr Subhash submitted that when he refused to marry her, she began sending him threatening mails and SMSes saying she would commit suicide.
