Mumbai, September 16: A woman was booked for allegedly sharing morphed obscene photos of an elderly aunt in Mumbai's Powai area. A 64-year-old woman has lodged a complaint with the Powai police, alleging that her 30-year-old niece has been circulating morphed obscene photos of her to relatives in what she claims is a defamation plot arising from a family dispute.

According to a report published by Mid-Day, the issue surfaced on September 4 when the woman’s brother informed her that he had received an obscene photo of her via WhatsApp, according to police sources. Initially dismissing it as a prank, the woman grew concerned when the same morphed photos were sent to her son and other relatives on September 14.
