Mumbai, August 24: Two brothers from Virar were detained on suspicion of altering pictures of a young girl and posting them on social media. Police in Arnala are investigating whether a messaging app enabled the artificial intelligence (AI) morphing of the girl's nude photos. The matter came to light when the girl learned that the pictures were being shared online on Tuesday. She approached the primary suspect, a 19-year-old, at his residence. Instead, he and his brother, 22, fought with the girl and roughed her up.

Due to residing in the same vicinity, the girl and the accused brothers knew each other.
