Kolkata Police's cybercrime cell has started probing the origin of the indecent MMS of athlete Pinki Pramanik which has gone viral on the internet.
On Saturday, a special team of the cybercrime cell visited the athlete's house in Teghoria and spoke to her to get leads on the case.
The 29-second MMS clip shows Pinki lying naked on her back on a bed with her eyes closed as the camera zooms in on her genitals
. Police suspect that the clip was reportedly handed over to police at Baguihati police station by Pinki's live-in partner soon after she lodged the rape complaint, to prove that the athlete is a man.
Police, however, ignored the MMS and did not use it as evidence to determine her gender. Later, it was circulated on the net and mobile phones. It seems the clip was recorded earlier, possibly at Pinki's house. "This is a heinous crime and the police should act against it," said Tuhin Roy, Pinki's counsel.
