Love jihadi claims to have cancer; demands physical relationship from a Hindu teacher

  • Pressures her to send a nude video after refusal

  • Blackmails her after receiving the video

  • Attempts suicide by injuring himself after being caught by Police

Bengaluru (Karnataka) – An incident has come to light where a love jihadi man claimed to be suffering from cancer and demanded a physical relationship from a Hindu teacher.

1. About a year ago, a man named Arshad from Puttaparthi in Andhra Pradesh sent an unknown message via WhatsApp to the victim, a teacher in Bengaluru. Introducing himself as her “old classmate,” he started friendly conversations. Trusting his words, the teacher continued chatting with him.

2. After a few days, Arshad claimed that he was suffering from cancer and gained the teacher’s sympathy. Using this pretext, he began repeatedly seeking financial help from her.

3. Later, saying, “Since I have cancer, fulfill my last wish,” he demanded a physical relationship with the teacher. When she refused, he insisted, “At least send a nude video.” The teacher then sent such a video to him.

4. After receiving the video, Arshad changed his behaviour and began blackmailing her using it. Threatening to circulate the video on social media if she did not pay, he started pressuring her for money and sexual favours.

5. Unable to bear the mental harassment, the teacher informed her colleagues. With their help, a plan was made to trap the accused. He was called to Bengaluru after being assured that she would comply with his demands.

6. When Arshad reached the teacher’s house, she and her colleagues caught him and handed him over to the Police. At that time, he requested that no complaint be filed, but the teacher proceeded to file one.

7. Frightened by the situation, Arshad took out a razor blade from his bag and attempted suicide by cutting his hand and genitals. The Police acted promptly and admitted him to a hospital.
