Police Arrest Man For Publishing Girlfriend's Nude Picture On Facebook
Police in Mataram, West Nusa Tenggara have arrested a man they identified as Toto for posting a nude photo of his girlfriend on Facebook.
“The man was arrested after intensive interrogation on Thursday night,” Mataram Police chief detective Andi Dady Nurcahyo told Metro TV on Friday.
He said Toto, a non-permanent staff member with the West Nusa Tenggara Office of General Works, had confessed to putting the photo on the popular social networking site.
“The suspect admitted what he did and erased the nude picture,” said Andi.
Police said Toto would be charged with Chapter 282 of the Electronic Information and Transaction Law (ITE) for spreading pornography, which carries maximum punishment of six years in prison.
The girlfriend confirmed it was her picture even though it did not show her head. Police said they had also confiscated a pair of underwear that was lying on the floor in the photo.
The woman told police Toto posted the photo after she tried to break up with him.
